About 08SL0ZZ
08SL0ZZ is the ICD-10-PCS code for a reposition procedure on the right extraocular muscle using an open approach. In ICD-10-PCS, reposition means moving to its normal location, or other suitable location, all or a portion of a body part.
In plain terms, this corresponds to transposition of extraocular muscles, the ICD-9-CM procedure title it maps to (15.5).
For a different body part, codes include 08SM0ZZ (left extraocular muscle), 08SN0ZZ (right upper eyelid), 08SP0ZZ (left upper eyelid), 08SQ0ZZ (right lower eyelid), 08SR0ZZ (left lower eyelid), 08SV0ZZ (right lacrimal gland) and 3 more.
The same procedure with a different approach is coded 08SL3ZZ (percutaneous).
It is an operating-room procedure in the MS-DRG logic for DRG 115 (Extraocular Procedures Except Orbit), under the surgical category “Extraocular Procedures Except Orbit”.
It has been valid since ICD-10-PCS took effect on October 1, 2015.
