2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.822 – Cysts of right lower eyelid

What it is

H02.822 identifies a cyst located on the right lower eyelid. Use it when documentation specifies a cystic lesion of that eyelid and side.

Clinical signs

Findings may include a localized, smooth, or rounded eyelid lump. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation for laterality and whether the lesion is truly cystic.

When to use this code

Use this code when the provider documents a cyst of the right lower eyelid, including a benign eyelid cyst described on exam or in the assessment. It is appropriate when the record clearly identifies the right side and lower lid. If the note only says “eyelid lesion” or does not confirm a cyst, check documentation.

Do not use for

Do not use it for left or bilateral eyelid cysts, or for nonspecific eyelid masses without a documented cyst. Check documentation if the lesion is inflammatory, infectious, or otherwise classified differently.

Coding tip

Confirm both laterality and the word “cyst” in the provider note before assigning H02.822.
