Burn w resulting rupture and dest of right eyeball, subs

This code signifies a severe injury to the right eye where a burn has led to the complete structural failure and disintegration of the eyeball. This represents a devastating and irreversible ocular trauma, typically resulting in permanent vision loss in the affected eye.

This code is appropriate for follow-up encounters for patients previously diagnosed with a burn that caused a ruptured and destroyed right eyeball. It should be used for subsequent visits related to the management of this specific injury, such as wound care, pain management, or preparation for prosthetic fitting.

• Requires a seventh character "D" for subsequent encounter, indicating ongoing care for the injury.
• Always sequence this code after any external cause codes (e.g., X00-X19) if applicable for the initial encounter.
• Do not use for initial treatment of the burn or for sequelae (late effects) once active treatment of the acute injury is complete.
