ICD-10 Code H04.811 – Granuloma of right lacrimal passage (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H04.811 – Granuloma of right lacrimal passage
What it is
H04.811 identifies a granuloma in the right lacrimal passage. Use it when documentation specifies a localized granulomatous lesion affecting the tear drainage system on the right side.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Commonly recorded findings include a visible or palpable mass, irritation, tearing, or obstruction of tear drainage in the right lacrimal pathway.
When to use this code
Use this code when the provider documents a granuloma of the right lacrimal passage, including a right-sided lacrimal sac or duct lesion described as granulomatous. Code it only when the laterality and site are clearly stated. If the note is nonspecific, check documentation before assigning H04.811.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for left-sided or unspecified lacrimal lesions, or for general tearing without a documented granuloma. Check documentation if the record describes infection, cyst, or other lacrimal disorders instead.
Coding tip
Confirm both laterality and the exact lacrimal site in the note before coding H04.811.
