About 080RXZZ

080RXZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a alteration procedure on the left lower eyelid using an external approach. In ICD-10-PCS, alteration means modifying the anatomic structure of a body part without affecting the function of the body part.

In plain terms, this corresponds to lower eyelid rhytidectomy, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (08.86).

For a different body part, codes include 080NXZZ (right upper eyelid), 080PXZZ (left upper eyelid) and 080QXZZ (right lower eyelid).

The same procedure with a different approach is coded 080R0ZZ (open) and 080R3ZZ (percutaneous).

With a different device, use 080RX7Z (autologous tissue substitute), 080RXJZ (synthetic substitute) and 080RXKZ (nonautologous tissue substitute).

It doesn't appear in the MS-DRG procedure index, so on its own it doesn't change the DRG assignment.

It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
