Summary
The provider performs an extended ophthalmoscopy, typically with an indirect ophthalmoscope which utilizes a bright light and a hand–held indirect lens rather than the common hand–held one–piece direct ophthalmoscope. He also performs scleral depression to better visualize the posterior segment and periphery of the fundus. He creates a retinal drawing with interpretation and writes a report. Report this code for an extended ophthalmoscopy with retinal drawing on one or both eyes.
