ICD-10 Code H11.222 – Conjunctival granuloma, left eye (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H11.222 – Conjunctival granuloma, left eye
What it is
H11.222 identifies a granuloma on the conjunctiva of the left eye. Use it when the record specifically documents a localized conjunctival granulomatous lesion on the left side.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Typical findings may include a visible conjunctival mass, localized redness, irritation, or foreign-body sensation, but you should code only when the provider documents a conjunctival granuloma.
When to use this code
Use this code when the diagnosis clearly states conjunctival granuloma in the left eye. It is appropriate for outpatient, specialty, or problem-list documentation that identifies the lesion by laterality. If the note only says “eye lesion” or “conjunctival growth,” check documentation.
Do not use for
Do not use H11.222 for nonspecific conjunctivitis, corneal lesions, or eyelid masses. If the lesion is in the right eye, bilateral, or the laterality is not documented, confirm the chart before coding.
Coding tip
Always capture laterality exactly as documented; this code is left eye specific.
