9A77 Corneal scars or opacities

International Classification of Diseases for Mortality and Morbidity Statistics, 11th Revision, v2024-01

Corneal opacity occurs when the cornea is scarred by a variety of infectious and inflammatory eye diseases. These scars stop light from passing through the cornea to the retina and may cause the cornea which is normally transparent to appear white or clouded over.
