2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.002 – Unspecified entropion of right lower eyelid

What it is

H02.002 identifies inward turning of the right lower eyelid without a documented cause or subtype. The lid margin rubs against the eye, but the record does not specify whether it is involutional, cicatricial, or spastic.

Clinical signs

Typical findings include eyelid inversion, lash-to-corneal contact, tearing, irritation, foreign-body sensation, and redness. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use H02.002 when the provider documents entropion of the right lower eyelid and does not identify a more specific type. It also fits when the note confirms the side and lid, but the etiology remains unspecified. Check documentation if laterality or eyelid level is unclear.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for left-sided, upper-lid, or bilateral entropion. Also avoid it when the chart specifies a more detailed entropion type or another eyelid disorder.

Coding tip

Verify both laterality and lid before assigning H02.002, and code a more specific entropion category when the provider documents one.
