What it is

This code identifies outward turning of the right lower or upper eyelid caused by age-related tissue laxity. It applies when the record does not specify which eyelid is involved.

Clinical signs

Typical findings include lid eversion, tearing, irritation, redness, and exposure of the conjunctiva. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use H02.133 when the provider documents senile ectropion affecting the right eye and does not name a specific eyelid. You should code from the ophthalmology note, operative report, or assessment when laterality and “unspecified eyelid” are clearly stated.

Do not use for

Do not use this code if the record identifies the left eye, both eyes, or a specific eyelid. Check documentation if the ectropion is paralytic, cicatricial, or congenital rather than senile.

Coding tip

Confirm laterality and whether the eyelid is specified before assigning H02.133.
