This code exists but cannot be submitted on its own. It groups the more specific codes beneath it.

A category header for its whole life, FY2017 onwards. It has never been valid for submission on its own.

Submit one of these 4 more specific codes instead:

• E08.3531 Diabetes mellitus due to underlying condition with proliferative diabetic retinopathy with traction retinal detachment not involving the macula, right eye
• E08.3532 Diabetes mellitus due to underlying condition with proliferative diabetic retinopathy with traction retinal detachment not involving the macula, left eye
• E08.3533 Diabetes mellitus due to underlying condition with proliferative diabetic retinopathy with traction retinal detachment not involving the macula, bilateral
• E08.3539 Diabetes mellitus due to underlying condition with proliferative diabetic retinopathy with traction retinal detachment not involving the macula, unspecified eye
