ICD-10 Code D23.11 – Other benign neoplasm of skin of right eyelid, including canthus (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code D23.11 – Other benign neoplasm of skin of right eyelid, including canthus
What it is
D23.11 identifies a noncancerous growth on the skin of the right eyelid, including the inner or outer canthus. Use it when the lesion is documented as benign and located on the right eyelid area.
Clinical signs
These lesions may appear as a small, localized eyelid mass, bump, or skin nodule. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation for whether the growth is stable, slow-growing, or cosmetically noticeable.
When to use this code
Use this code when the provider documents a benign skin neoplasm of the right eyelid or canthus and does not name a more specific lesion type. It also fits cases where the pathology or exam confirms a benign eyelid skin growth. Check documentation if the record only says “eyelid lesion” without laterality or benign nature.
Do not use for
Do not use D23.11 for malignant eyelid tumors, inflammatory eyelid conditions, or lesions on the left eyelid. If the site is not clearly the right eyelid or canthus, check documentation.
Coding tip
Verify both laterality and benign behavior before assigning D23.11.
