H40.3 — Glaucoma secondary to eye trauma
Is H40.3 billable?
No — H40.3 is a non-billable header code. H40.3 groups more specific codes and cannot be submitted on a claim. A valid ICD-10-CM code must be reported at the highest level of specificity available in its branch. Select one of the 20 billable codes beneath H40.3.

How is H40.3 listed in the Alphabetic Index?
These are the routes through the Alphabetic Index that lead to H40.3. They show the wording a clinician may have documented, which often differs from the Tabular description.
- Glaucoma › secondary › trauma
Code also
Two codes may be needed to describe the condition fully. Whether H40.3 is sequenced first depends on the reason for the encounter.
- underlying condition
Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from H40
The conditions below can never be reported together with H40.3 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 7
The conditions below are not part of H40.3, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, H40.3 and the excluded code may both be reported.
- certain conditions originating in the perinatal period (P04-P96)
- certain infectious and parasitic diseases (A00-B99)
- complications of pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (O00-O9A)
- congenital malformations, deformations, and chromosomal abnormalities (Q00-Q99)
- diabetes mellitus related eye conditions (E09.3-, E10.3-, E11.3-, E13.3-)
- endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases (E00-E88)
- injury (trauma) of eye and orbit (S05.-)
- injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes (S00-T88)
- neoplasms (C00-D49)
- symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified (R00-R94)
- syphilis related eye disorders (A50.01, A50.3-, A51.43, A52.71)
