For a patient who has had a CVA and one of the residuals is unilateral hemianopsia what code would we use in addition to 438.7? 368.46 and 368.47 are both bilateral codes.
Thank you
 
Hey :)

What about 438.7 & 368.46..???

As per Index of Diseases of ICD 9 CM, Late Effects of Cerebrovascular disease => disturbances of vision => 438.7

In addition we need to code 368.46.

Hope this helps!!!
