📋Clinical Description

This code signifies a specific type of diabetes mellitus caused by drugs or chemicals, complicated by severe diabetic retinopathy in the left eye. The retinopathy has progressed to involve both tractional and rhegmatogenous retinal detachments, indicating significant ocular damage.

🎯When to Use

Apply this code when documentation clearly states drug or chemical-induced diabetes mellitus and the patient presents with a combined tractional and rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in the left eye due to proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Ensure the causal link between the drug/chemical and diabetes is established.

💡Coding Tips

Always sequence the drug/chemical code (T36-T65 with 5th or 6th character 1-4) first, followed by this diabetes code.
Verify laterality (left eye) is explicitly documented for the retinal detachment.
Distinguish from other forms of diabetes (e.g., Type 1, Type 2) and other types of retinal detachment.
