Instructional NotesGuidance
Instructions from the official ICD-10-CM Tabular List that apply to R94.113: its own notes plus those printed at R94, block R90-R94, and Chapter 18. A note printed at a category, block or chapter applies to every code under it.
Includes
Further defines, or gives examples of, the content of the category.
- abnormal results of radionuclide [radioisotope] uptake studies
- abnormal results of scintigraphy
- nonspecific abnormal findings on diagnostic imaging by computerized axial tomography [CAT scan]
- nonspecific abnormal findings on diagnostic imaging by magnetic resonance imaging [MRI][NMR]
- nonspecific abnormal findings on diagnostic imaging by positron emission tomography [PET scan]
- nonspecific abnormal findings on diagnostic imaging by thermography
- nonspecific abnormal findings on diagnostic imaging by ultrasound [echogram]

Excludes1
Not coded here: the excluded code is never reported together with this one, unless the two conditions are unrelated.
- abnormal findings on antenatal screening of mother (O28.-)
- diagnostic abnormal findings classified elsewhere - see Alphabetical Index
Excludes2
Not included here: the excluded condition is not part of this code, but a patient may have both, so both codes may be reported.
Notes
General instructions on how these codes are used.
- This chapter includes symptoms, signs, abnormal results of clinical or other investigative procedures, and ill-defined conditions regarding which no diagnosis classifiable elsewhere is recorded.
- Signs and symptoms that point rather definitely to a given diagnosis have been assigned to a category in other chapters of the classification. In general, categories in this chapter include the less well-defined conditions and symptoms that, without the necessary study of the case to establish a final diagnosis, point perhaps equally to two or more diseases or to two or more systems of the body. Practically all categories in the chapter could be designated 'not otherwise specified', 'unknown etiology' or 'transient'. The Alphabetical Index should be consulted to determine which symptoms and signs are to be allocated here and which to other chapters. The residual subcategories, numbered .8, are generally provided for other relevant symptoms that cannot be allocated elsewhere in the classification.
- The conditions and signs or symptoms included in categories R00-R94 consist of:
- (a) cases for which no more specific diagnosis can be made even after all the facts bearing on the case have been investigated;
- (b) signs or symptoms existing at the time of initial encounter that proved to be transient and whose causes could not be determined;
- (c) provisional diagnosis in a patient who failed to return for further investigation or care;
- (d) cases referred elsewhere for investigation or treatment before the diagnosis was made;
- (e) cases in which a more precise diagnosis was not available for any other reason;
- (f) certain symptoms, for which supplementary information is provided, that represent important problems in medical care in their own right.

When you look at an object, you're using several muscles to move both eyes to focus on it. If you have a problem with the muscles, the eyes don't work properly.

Questions About R94.113Overview
What is the ICD-10 code for abnormal oculomotor study?
The ICD-10-CM code for abnormal oculomotor study is R94.113 (sometimes written as R94113). It is billable on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
Is R94.113 (Abnormal results of function studies of eye) a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report abnormal oculomotor study on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
What MS-DRG does R94.113 group to?
When abnormal oculomotor study is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 125, 124, with relative weights from 0.7699 to 1.2470 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.
Can R94.113 be a principal diagnosis?
Use it with care. This is a symptom code, so once a definitive diagnosis explaining the abnormal oculomotor study is established, that condition takes the principal position instead.
Can R94.113 be reported with a code from O28?
Not as a rule. The Excludes1 note at block R90-R94, which applies to R94.113, lists "abnormal findings on antenatal screening of mother (O28.-)". An Excludes1 note means the excluded code is never reported together with this one; the only exception is when the two conditions are unrelated to each other (Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
