Answer to Question 1

ICD-10-PCS codes are procedure codes that replace the ICD-9-CM Volume 3 codes. Each ICD-10-PCS code contains seven characters, which are letters or numbers. Each alphanumeric character has a specific meaning and value. Each code is made up of any one of the ten digits 0-9 and any one of 24 letters A-H, J-N, and P-Z. The letters O and I were left out so as not to be confused with the numbers 0 and 1.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
