2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code E70.328 – Other oculocutaneous albinism

What it is

E70.328 identifies other forms of oculocutaneous albinism, a hereditary condition affecting pigmentation in the skin, hair, and eyes. Use it when documentation specifies oculocutaneous albinism but does not name a more specific subtype.

Clinical signs

Typical findings include reduced pigment, very light skin or hair, and eye involvement such as reduced visual acuity or nystagmus. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use this code when the provider documents “other oculocutaneous albinism” or a comparable diagnosis without a more precise code option. It also fits genetic or ophthalmic notes that confirm oculocutaneous albinism but do not identify a named subtype. Check documentation if the record is unclear.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for isolated ocular albinism, partial albinism, or pigment changes from other causes. If the chart does not confirm oculocutaneous albinism, check documentation.

Coding tip

Assign E70.328 only when the record clearly supports a nonspecific oculocutaneous albinism diagnosis, not just hypopigmentation.
