Postproc hematoma of right eye and adnexa fol other proc

This code indicates a collection of blood (hematoma) in or around the right eye that develops as a complication after a surgical or invasive procedure not specifically related to the eye itself. This postprocedural bleeding can affect vision, cause pain, and require further medical intervention.

Use this code when documentation clearly states a hematoma of the right eye or its adnexa (e.g., eyelids, lacrimal apparatus) occurred following a non-ocular procedure. Examples include a hematoma developing after sinus surgery, facial reconstruction, or other head/neck procedures where the eye was not the primary surgical site. The physician's notes should explicitly link the hematoma to the prior procedure.

• Always sequence this code after the code for the underlying complication (e.g., T81.0x for hemorrhage/hematoma complicating a procedure) if applicable, or after the primary reason for the encounter if the hematoma is the main issue.
• Ensure the documentation specifies "right eye" and confirms the hematoma is postprocedural and not spontaneous or traumatic.
• Distinguish from hematomas directly related to an ocular procedure (H59.31x, H59.32x, H59.33x) or those due to trauma (S05.1x).
