2013 ICD-9-CM Diagnosis Code 367.1
Myopia
- a refractive error in which rays of light entering the eye parallel to the optic axis are brought to a focus in front of the retina, as a result of the eyeball being too long from front to back; also called nearsightedness because the near point is less distant than it is in emmetropia with an equal amplitude of accommodation.
- ICD-9-CM 367.1 is a billable medical code that can be used to specify a diagnosis on a reimbursement claim.
