2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.145 – Spastic ectropion of left lower eyelid

What it is

H02.145 identifies spastic ectropion affecting the left lower eyelid. The eyelid turns outward because of muscle spasm, leaving the inner lid surface exposed.

Clinical signs

Typical findings include outward lid eversion, tearing, irritation, and incomplete eyelid closure. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use this code when the provider documents spastic ectropion specifically on the left lower eyelid. It applies when the condition is clinically identified and laterality is confirmed. If the note only says ectropion without spasticity or side, check documentation.

Do not use for

Do not use it for ectropion of another eyelid or for unspecified laterality. Do not assign it when the record describes a different eyelid disorder or the documentation is unclear.

Coding tip

Verify both the spastic nature and the left lower eyelid location before coding.
