Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from H40

The conditions below can never be reported together with H40.143 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • absolute glaucoma (H44.51-)
  • congenital glaucoma (Q15.0)
  • traumatic glaucoma due to birth injury (P15.3)

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 7

The conditions below are not part of H40.143, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, H40.143 and the excluded code may both be reported.
