ICD-10 Code H02.011 – Cicatricial entropion of right upper eyelid (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.011 – Cicatricial entropion of right upper eyelid
What it is
This code identifies inward turning of the right upper eyelid caused by scarring. The eyelid margin rubs against the eye surface, which can irritate the cornea and conjunctiva.
Clinical signs
Typical findings include lid inversion, lash contact with the eyeball, tearing, redness, and foreign-body sensation. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.
When to use this code
Use this code when the record clearly states cicatricial entropion affecting the right upper eyelid. It applies when scarring is the documented cause, such as after inflammation, trauma, or prior surgery. Code the laterality and lid site exactly as documented.
Do not use for
Do not use it for spastic or congenital entropion, or for entropion of a different eyelid. Check documentation if the cause is not scarring.
Coding tip
Confirm both laterality and the cicatricial cause before assigning H02.011.
