H05 vs Q10.7
H05 (Disorders of orbit) compared with Q10.7 (Congenital malformation of orbit), from the official CMS tabular data. Do not report these codes together: the official tabular list marks them Excludes1.
Can these codes be reported together?
No — do not report together. H05 carries an Excludes1 note covering Q10.7: “congenital malformation of orbit (Q10.7)”
Sole exception: when the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
