ICD-10 Code H31.411 – Hemorrhagic choroidal detachment, right eye (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H31.411 – Hemorrhagic choroidal detachment, right eye
What it is
H31.411 identifies a hemorrhagic choroidal detachment in the right eye. This means blood has collected in the choroidal space, causing separation of the choroid from the underlying eye wall.
Clinical signs
Typical findings include acute eye pain, decreased vision, and a visible or imaging-confirmed choroidal elevation. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.
When to use this code
Use this code when the provider documents hemorrhagic choroidal detachment specifically in the right eye. It is appropriate when the diagnosis is confirmed by ophthalmic exam, ultrasound, or other documented evaluation. If laterality is not stated, check documentation before coding.
Do not use for
Do not use H31.411 for nonhemorrhagic choroidal detachment or for detachment in the left eye or both eyes. Do not code it when the record only says “choroidal detachment” without hemorrhagic detail.
Coding tip
Verify both laterality and the hemorrhagic nature of the detachment before assigning H31.411.
