Type 2 diab with diab mclr edema, resolved fol trtmt, unsp

This code signifies a patient with type 2 diabetes who previously experienced diabetic macular edema (DME) that has since resolved due to therapeutic intervention. It specifies that the resolution is complete, and the affected eye is not further specified.

Apply this code when documentation clearly states a history of type 2 diabetes and previously diagnosed DME that is now fully resolved following treatment (e.g., anti-VEGF injections, laser photocoagulation). The physician's notes should confirm the absence of active macular edema.

• Ensure documentation explicitly states "resolved" or "resolution" of the macular edema.
• Do not use this code if the macular edema is still active or only partially resolved.
• Always sequence the diabetes code first, as it is the underlying systemic condition.
