ICD-10 Code H02.003 – Unspecified entropion of right eye, unspecified eyelid (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide

The ICD-10 code for Unspecified entropion of right eye, unspecified eyelid is H02.003.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.003 – Unspecified entropion of right eye, unspecified eyelid

What it is

This code identifies inward turning of the right eyelid when the specific eyelid is not documented. The lash-bearing lid margin may rub against the eye, but the record does not specify upper or lower eyelid.

Clinical signs

Typical findings include eyelid inversion, ocular irritation, tearing, and a foreign-body sensation. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use H02.003 when the provider documents entropion of the right eye but does not identify which eyelid is involved. It also fits when laterality is clear, but the eyelid detail remains unspecified in the note. Check documentation if the record mentions a congenital or spastic form, because that may require a different code.

Do not use for

Do not use this code if the documentation specifies the upper or lower right eyelid. Also avoid it when the condition is documented as another eyelid disorder without true entropion.

Coding tip

Query for the exact right eyelid when the note says only “entropion,” because more specific coding may be available.
