ICD-10 Code H02.111 – Cicatricial ectropion of right upper eyelid (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.111 – Cicatricial ectropion of right upper eyelid
What it is
H02.111 identifies outward turning of the right upper eyelid caused by scarring or cicatrix. The lid no longer rests against the eye normally, which can expose the ocular surface.
Clinical signs
Typical findings include eyelid eversion, visible scar tissue, and poor lid apposition to the globe. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.
When to use this code
Use this code when the record clearly states cicatricial ectropion affecting the right upper eyelid. You may also use it when the provider documents scarring as the cause of the lid malposition. Confirm laterality and eyelid level before coding.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for ectropion of a different eyelid or side, or when the documentation does not specify a cicatricial cause. Check documentation.
Coding tip
Always match the documented side and upper-lid location exactly; laterality errors are common.
