ICD-10 Code H11.123 – Conjunctival Concretions, Bilateral (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide

The ICD-10 code for Conjunctival concretions, bilateral is H11.123.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H11.123 – Conjunctival concretions, bilateral

What it is

H11.123 identifies concretions in both conjunctivae. These are small, usually yellow-white deposits on the eye surface lining, documented as bilateral.

Clinical signs

Patients may have visible tiny nodules on the palpebral conjunctiva, sometimes with irritation or a foreign-body sensation. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use H11.123 when the record clearly states conjunctival concretions affecting both eyes. Code this when the provider documents the condition as bilateral, whether found incidentally or during evaluation of eye discomfort.

If the note identifies only one eye, use the unilateral code instead. Check documentation when the laterality is unclear or when another conjunctival disorder is the primary diagnosis.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for nonspecific conjunctival irritation, discharge, or other conjunctival lesions without documented concretions. Do not assign it if bilateral involvement is not stated.

Coding tip

Confirm laterality in the ophthalmology note before coding, because H11.123 requires bilateral documentation.
