ICD-10 Code H02.64 – Xanthelasma of left upper eyelid (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.64 – Xanthelasma of left upper eyelid
What it is
H02.64 identifies xanthelasma limited to the left upper eyelid. It describes a localized yellowish plaque or deposit on that eyelid, usually documented as a benign eyelid finding.
Clinical signs
Typical documentation notes a soft, yellow, flat or slightly raised lesion on the left upper eyelid. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation if the laterality or eyelid location is unclear.
When to use this code
Use this code when the record specifically states xanthelasma of the left upper eyelid. It is appropriate when the provider documents the lesion’s exact eyelid and side, not just a general eyelid discoloration. If the note does not confirm location, check documentation.
Do not use for
Do not use H02.64 for xanthelasma on another eyelid or on both sides. Do not use it for nonspecific eyelid lesions, swelling, or discoloration without a documented xanthelasma diagnosis.
Coding tip
Match the code to the exact eyelid and laterality in the provider note; xanthelasma codes are location-specific.
