ICD-10 Code H30.102 – Unspecified disseminated chorioretinal inflammation, left eye (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H30.102 – Unspecified disseminated chorioretinal inflammation, left eye
What it is
This code identifies disseminated chorioretinal inflammation affecting the left eye when the record does not specify the cause or exact subtype. Use it for documented inflammation involving both the choroid and retina in that eye.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Common findings may include blurred vision, floaters, eye discomfort, or retinal and choroidal inflammatory changes noted on examination.
When to use this code
Use H30.102 when the clinician documents disseminated chorioretinal inflammation in the left eye but does not name a more specific diagnosis. It is appropriate when laterality is clear and the condition is not described as bilateral, unspecified eye, or a different posterior segment disorder.
Do not use for
Do not use this code if the record specifies another chorioretinal disorder, a different eye, or bilateral involvement. Check documentation if the inflammation is described only generally or if the site is not clearly chorioretinal.
Coding tip
Confirm laterality and the exact wording in the note before assigning H30.102.
