2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.045 – Spastic entropion of left lower eyelid

What it is

H02.045 identifies spastic entropion affecting the left lower eyelid. In this condition, the eyelid turns inward intermittently because of muscle spasm, causing the lashes or lid margin to rub against the eye.

Clinical signs

Typical findings include inward turning of the left lower lid, eye irritation, tearing, redness, and a foreign-body sensation. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use this code when the record specifically states spastic entropion of the left lower eyelid. It applies when the provider documents the laterality and the spastic nature of the entropion. If the note only says entropion without laterality or type, check documentation.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for entropion of the right eyelid, upper eyelid, or unspecified eyelid. Do not use it when the chart describes a different eyelid malposition, such as ectropion.

Coding tip

Confirm both laterality and that the entropion is documented as spastic before assigning H02.045.
