2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.105 – Unspecified ectropion of left lower eyelid
What it is
Use this code for outward turning of the left lower eyelid when the type is not further specified. It indicates eyelid malposition affecting the left lower lid only.
Clinical signs
Common findings include lid eversion, tearing, irritation, redness, and possible exposure of the conjunctiva. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.
When to use this code
Assign H02.105 when the provider documents ectropion of the left lower eyelid but does not specify a cause or subtype. Use it for encounter notes describing lid turning outward on the left lower lid without additional detail. Check documentation if the record suggests cicatricial, paralytic, or senile ectropion.
Do not use for
Do not use this code if the chart identifies a different eyelid, a specified ectropion type, or a related eyelid disorder. If laterality or subtype is documented elsewhere, code that information instead.
Coding tip
Verify laterality and ectropion type in the ophthalmology note before assigning the unspecified code.
