Within Q13 (congenital malformations of anterior segment of eye), Q13.1 is specifically for absence of iris. Related codes cover coloboma of iris (Q13.0), other congenital malformations of iris (Q13.2), congenital corneal opacity (Q13.3), other congenital corneal malformations (Q13.4), Blue sclera (Q13.5), other congenital malformations of anterior segment of eye (Q13.8) and congenital malformation of anterior segment of eye, unspecified (Q13.9).
