About H25.2
H25.2 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for age-related cataract, morgagnian type. It belongs to category H25 (age-related cataract), block H25-H28 (disorders of lens) and chapter 7 (diseases of the eye and adnexa). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 4 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: H25.20 (unspecified eye), H25.21 (right eye), H25.22 (left eye) and H25.23 (bilateral).
