ICD-10 Code H30.112 – Disseminated chorioretinal inflammation of posterior pole, left eye (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H30.112 – Disseminated chorioretinal inflammation of posterior pole, left eye
What it is
This code identifies inflammatory disease affecting the choroid and retina in the posterior pole of the left eye. Use it when documentation specifically states disseminated chorioretinal inflammation in that eye.
Clinical signs
Findings may include decreased vision, floaters, or blurred central vision, depending on severity and location. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation for the exact ophthalmic diagnosis and laterality.
When to use this code
Use H30.112 when the provider documents disseminated chorioretinal inflammation limited to the posterior pole of the left eye. It is appropriate for ophthalmology notes, consults, or problem lists that name this condition clearly. If the record only says chorioretinitis or posterior uveitis, check documentation for the exact site and laterality.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for right-eye or unspecified-eye disease, or for inflammation outside the posterior pole. Check documentation if the note describes a different retinal or choroidal disorder.
Coding tip
Always verify laterality and anatomic site in the ophthalmology report before assigning H30.112.
