ICD-10 Code H02.141 – Spastic ectropion of right upper eyelid (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.141 – Spastic ectropion of right upper eyelid
What it is
H02.141 identifies spastic ectropion affecting the right upper eyelid. The eyelid turns outward because of muscle spasm, usually causing poor lid-to-eye contact.
Clinical signs
Look for outward rotation of the right upper lid, tearing, irritation, and incomplete eyelid closure. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.
When to use this code
Use H02.141 when the clinician documents spastic ectropion limited to the right upper eyelid. It fits cases where the outward turning is due to spasm, not scarring or paralysis. If the note does not specify laterality or cause, check documentation.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for ectropion of another eyelid, bilateral disease, or nonspastic ectropion. Check documentation if the record describes cicatricial, paralytic, or unspecified eyelid malposition.
Coding tip
Verify the exact eyelid and laterality in the note before assigning H02.141.
