Abnormal results of other function studies of eye
ICD-10 R94.118 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of abnormal results of other function studies of eye.
R94.118 is used to classify abnormal results from various function studies of the eye that do not fall under more specific categories. These studies may include visual field tests, electroretinography, and other specialized assessments that evaluate the functional capacity of the eye and its components. Abnormal findings can indicate a range of conditions, such as retinal diseases, optic nerve disorders, or systemic diseases affecting vision. Symptoms associated with these abnormalities may include blurred vision, visual field loss, or difficulty with color perception. Clinicians often utilize these tests to diagnose conditions like glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, or macular degeneration. Accurate interpretation of these results is crucial for determining the appropriate management and treatment plan for the patient.
Documentation should include the type of function study performed, results, and any relevant patient history or symptoms.
Patients presenting with visual disturbances or systemic conditions that may affect vision, such as diabetes or hypertension.
Ensure that the relationship between systemic diseases and eye function studies is clearly documented.
Acute care documentation must detail the immediate findings from function studies and any interventions taken.
Patients with sudden vision loss or acute eye injuries requiring immediate assessment.
Rapid documentation is essential; ensure that all findings are recorded promptly to support the diagnosis.
Used when a patient presents with symptoms of visual field loss and requires a comprehensive assessment.
Document the specific findings from the visual field test and correlate them with the patient's symptoms.
Ophthalmologists should ensure that all relevant findings are included in the report.
R94.118 encompasses various function studies of the eye, including visual field tests, electroretinography, and other specialized assessments that evaluate the functional capacity of the eye.
