The ICD-10 code for Cicatricial entropion of right eye, unspecified eyelid is H02.013.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.013 – Cicatricial entropion of right eye, unspecified eyelid

What it is

This code identifies inward turning of the right eyelid caused by scarring, with no eyelid specified. The lid margin rubs against the eye surface and may interfere with comfort or vision.

Clinical signs

Typical findings include an inward-rotated eyelid, lash contact with the globe, tearing, irritation, and foreign-body sensation. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use H02.013 when the record states cicatricial entropion of the right eye and does not identify the upper or lower eyelid. You may also use it when scarring is the documented cause and laterality is clearly right. Check documentation if the note describes spastic or congenital entropion instead.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for entropion without scarring, or when the left eye is affected. If the eyelid is specified, choose the more specific code.

Coding tip

Confirm both laterality and whether the eyelid is specified before assigning H02.013.
