ICD-10 Code H02.039 – Senile entropion of unspecified eye, unspecified eyelid (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.039 – Senile entropion of unspecified eye, unspecified eyelid
What it is
This code identifies age-related inward turning of an eyelid when the eye and eyelid are not further specified. The lid margin rubs against the eye, which can cause irritation.
Clinical signs
Common findings include inward rotation of the eyelid, lash contact with the conjunctiva or cornea, tearing, redness, and a foreign-body sensation. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.
When to use this code
Use H02.039 when the provider documents senile or involutional entropion but does not specify the eye or eyelid involved. It also fits when the record confirms age-related entropion without laterality details. Check documentation if another eyelid disorder is described more specifically.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for congenital entropion, spastic entropion, or ectropion. If the note names a specific eye or eyelid, code that more precise option instead.
Coding tip
Confirm that “senile” means involutional entropion and that no laterality is documented before assigning H02.039.
