ICD-10 Code H02.043 – Spastic entropion of right eye, unspecified eyelid (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.043 – Spastic entropion of right eye, unspecified eyelid
What it is
Use this code for involuntary inward turning of the right eyelid when the specific eyelid is not documented. The lash margin may rub against the eye, causing irritation.
Clinical signs
Typical findings include eyelid inversion, ocular discomfort, tearing, redness, and corneal irritation. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.
When to use this code
Assign H02.043 when the chart states spastic entropion of the right eye and does not specify upper or lower eyelid. Use it for confirmed diagnosis, specialist assessment, or problem-list documentation. If the record identifies a different eyelid or cause, choose the more specific code.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for left-eye entropion or for right eyelid cases with a specified upper or lower lid. Check documentation if the inward turning is congenital, cicatricial, or otherwise classified differently.
Coding tip
Verify both laterality and eyelid specificity before coding; unspecified eyelid means you should not assume upper or lower lid.
