What it is

This code identifies a hematoma involving the right eye or nearby adnexal tissues that develops after another procedure. It signals a postoperative bleeding complication, not the original procedure itself.

Clinical signs

Documentation may describe localized swelling, bruising, pain, or visible blood collection around the right eye after surgery or an intervention. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use this code when the record clearly states a postprocedural hematoma affecting the right eye or adnexa and links it to a prior procedure. It is appropriate when the provider documents the complication as occurring after surgery, injection, or another eye-related intervention. If laterality or the causal procedure is unclear, check documentation.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for spontaneous orbital or eyelid bleeding, trauma-related hematoma, or unspecified postoperative hemorrhage without hematoma. Check documentation if the record does not specify the right side.

Coding tip

Confirm both the postoperative nature and right-sided location before assigning H59.341.
