Eye Injuries

The structure of your face helps protect your eyes from injury. Still, injuries can damage your eye, sometimes severely enough that you could lose your vision. Most eye injuries are preventable. If you play sports or work in certain jobs, you may need protection.

Questions About S05.20XDOverview

Is S05.20XD a billable code?

Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report ocular laceration and rupture with prolapse or loss of intraocular tissue, unspecified eye, subsequent encounter on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

What does the 7th character D in S05.20XD mean?

The final character D marks a subsequent encounter: use it for routine care while the ocular laceration and rupture with prolapse or loss of intraocular tissue is healing, after active treatment has ended.

What MS-DRG does S05.20XD group to?

When ocular laceration and rupture with prolapse or loss of intraocular tissue, unspecified eye, subsequent encounter is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 950, 949, with relative weights from 0.7661 to 1.1231 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.

Is S05.20XD exempt from POA reporting?

Yes. CMS lists this code among those exempt from present on admission reporting, so hospitals do not assign a POA indicator for ocular laceration and rupture with prolapse or loss of intraocular tissue, unspecified eye, subsequent encounter on inpatient claims. The code appears in the Injuries to the head (S00-S09) range of the CMS exempt list.

What is the ICD-9 equivalent of S05.20XD?

Under the General Equivalence Mappings, ocular laceration and rupture with prolapse or loss of intraocular tissue, unspecified eye, subsequent encounter converts to ICD-9-CM V58.89 (other specfied aftercare). The mapping is approximate, so confirm the match fits the documentation.
