ICD-10 Code D23.112 – Other benign neoplasm of skin of right lower eyelid, including canthus (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code D23.112 – Other benign neoplasm of skin of right lower eyelid, including canthus
What it is
This code identifies a noncancerous growth arising in the skin of the right lower eyelid, including the canthus. Use it when documentation states a benign skin neoplasm at that exact site.
Clinical signs
Findings may include a localized eyelid lump, papule, or nodule that is slow growing and well circumscribed. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation, especially if the lesion is described as benign.
When to use this code
Use D23.112 when the provider documents a benign neoplasm of the skin on the right lower eyelid or its canthus. It is appropriate when pathology, exam, or assessment clearly identifies the lesion as benign and limited to that anatomic site.
If the record only says “eyelid lesion” or does not specify laterality, you need more detail. Code the documented site and side exactly as written, and check documentation if the lesion type is uncertain.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for malignant, uncertain, or inflammatory eyelid lesions. It is also wrong for lesions on the left eyelid or for unspecified eyelid sites without right lower eyelid documentation.
Coding tip
Verify both laterality and the lower eyelid location before assigning D23.112.
