About ICD-9-CM 743.65
743.65 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for specified congenital anomalies of lacrimal passages. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-CM took over.
The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 2 ICD-10-CM codes, such as Q10.4 (Absence and agenesis of lacrimal apparatus) and Q10.6 (Other congenital malformations of lacrimal apparatus). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
