This code signifies a patient with type 2 diabetes experiencing advanced diabetic eye disease, specifically proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR), which has led to a traction retinal detachment affecting both eyes. The detachment in both eyes is noted to be outside the macula, preserving central vision.

Use this code when documentation confirms a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes and bilateral proliferative diabetic retinopathy with traction retinal detachment. The medical record must explicitly state that the detachment does not involve the macula in either eye.

• Ensure documentation specifies "type 2 diabetes" and "proliferative diabetic retinopathy" with "traction retinal detachment."
• Verify laterality (bilateral) and confirm that the macula is explicitly stated as "not involved."
• Do not use if the detachment involves the macula; a different code would be required for macular involvement.
