Glaucoma #77

Closed Miriam-S-git closed 3 years ago

I have reviewed the codelist and completed and additional search.

Queries/Comments 1) I agree with their codes for inclusion. 2) I have found lots of additional codes. These are highlighted yellow on the attached sheet @finersarah it is not clear why they have excluded the codes. But most of the additional codes are related to glaucoma with an underlying disease. I think we should keep these in. Please review. 3) I have found three codes related to childhood disease. @finersarah should we keep these in? I think childhood disease does result in adult disease. glaucoma.xlsx

well done for spotting all of these additional codes. I agree with their inclusion. I also agree you should keep the childhood codes in as it is a chronic condition that does not resolve and requires ongoing treatment.

clinical review complete

Code list updated according to clinical revision. Codes added to the main list. Two duplicated codes were removed.
