ICD-10 Code H02.03 – Senile entropion of eyelid (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.03 – Senile entropion of eyelid
What it is
Senile entropion is inward turning of the eyelid, usually from age-related eyelid laxity. The lid margin rubs against the eye and can irritate the cornea.
Clinical signs
Look for an inward-turned eyelid, tearing, irritation, foreign-body sensation, and possible corneal redness or abrasion. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.
When to use this code
Use H02.03 when the provider documents senile or involutional entropion of the eyelid. It fits age-related lid inversion affecting the upper or lower lid, with or without ocular irritation. If the record does not specify senile entropion, check documentation before coding.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for spastic, cicatricial, or congenital entropion. Also avoid it when the eyelid turns inward from trauma, surgery, or another documented cause.
Coding tip
Confirm the chart states senile or involutional entropion, and code the laterality only if the record supports it.
