ICD-10-PCS Code For Eye Right: Procedure Code Group Overview

The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) code group B825 includes procedures performed to image ocular structures in the right eye using computerized tomography. These ICD-10-PCS codes are used for inpatient documentation when a computed tomography scan of the right eye is performed to evaluate anatomy, trauma, or pathology. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-PCS B825 group is essential for proper inpatient reimbursement, as it captures the procedure performed and supports clinical documentation accuracy.

Eye, Right Computerized Tomography Procedure Overview

This procedure group covers computerized tomography imaging of the right eye, capturing multiplanar cross-sectional images of ocular structures using external ionizing radiation. Procedures in this group target the eye body system and focus specifically on the right eye to evaluate anatomy, trauma, or disease. Accurate coding of these imaging procedures supports correct inpatient documentation and influences case mix and payment determinations.

B82500Z	Computerized Tomography (CT Scan) of Right Eye using High Osmolar Contrast, Unenhanced and Enhanced
B8250ZZ	Computerized Tomography (CT Scan) of Right Eye using High Osmolar Contrast
B82510Z	Computerized Tomography (CT Scan) of Right Eye using Low Osmolar Contrast, Unenhanced and Enhanced
B8251ZZ	Computerized Tomography (CT Scan) of Right Eye using Low Osmolar Contrast

B825YZZ	Computerized Tomography (CT Scan) of Right Eye using Other Contrast
B825ZZZ	Computerized Tomography (CT Scan) of Right Eye

Typical Clinical Scenarios

A patient presents to the emergency department after blunt facial trauma with right periorbital swelling, diplopia, and concern for orbital fracture and intraorbital foreign body; the patient is admitted for observation and surgical consultation, and a CT scan of the right eye is performed to evaluate bony orbital walls, globe integrity, and intraorbital hemorrhage. Typical codes: B825ZZZ
An inpatient with progressive, unexplained right-sided vision loss and suspected intraocular or intraorbital mass is admitted for expedited diagnostic workup; contrast-enhanced CT of the right eye is obtained to delineate lesion size, extent, and involvement of adjacent structures when MRI is contraindicated or unavailable. Typical codes: B8250ZZ, B82500Z
A hospitalized patient with a known history of severe renal impairment requires imaging for suspected right orbital cellulitis with possible abscess; clinicians perform a low-osmolar contrast-enhanced CT of the right eye to improve visualization while minimizing contrast nephrotoxicity risk. Typical codes: B8251ZZ, B82510Z
