ICD-10 Code H05.832 – Thyroid orbitopathy, left orbit (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H05.832 – Thyroid orbitopathy, left orbit
What it is
This code identifies thyroid-related eye disease affecting the left orbit. It is used when documentation specifies orbitopathy limited to the left side.
Clinical signs
Clinical features may include eye bulging, eyelid retraction, redness, swelling, or discomfort. Findings can vary; use the documented left-orbit involvement and refer to documentation.
When to use this code
Use H05.832 when the provider documents thyroid orbitopathy in the left orbit, including unilateral thyroid eye disease. It is appropriate when the record clearly links the orbital findings to thyroid disease. If laterality is not stated, check documentation before assigning this code.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for unspecified thyroid orbitopathy or disease involving both orbits. Do not assign it when the eye findings are unrelated to thyroid disease.
Coding tip
Verify laterality in the note; left orbit must be documented to support H05.832.
