Drug/chem diab w prolif diab rtnop w trctn dtch macula,r eye

This code signifies diabetes mellitus caused by a drug or chemical, specifically complicated by advanced diabetic retinopathy. The retinopathy involves the growth of new, abnormal blood vessels (proliferative) and has led to a tractional detachment of the retina, directly affecting the macula in the patient's right eye.

Use this code when documentation clearly states drug or chemical-induced diabetes with proliferative diabetic retinopathy. The key is the presence of a traction retinal detachment that specifically involves the macula of the right eye. Supporting documentation would include ophthalmology reports detailing the specific type and location of the retinal detachment.

• Always confirm the laterality (right eye) and the specific involvement of the macula for the traction retinal detachment.
• Ensure the diabetes is explicitly documented as drug or chemical-induced, not Type 1, Type 2, or unspecified.
• Code also any associated drug or chemical responsible for the diabetes, if known and documented.
