The ICD-10 code for Senile entropion of right eye, unspecified eyelid is H02.033.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.033 – Senile entropion of right eye, unspecified eyelid

What it is

H02.033 identifies age-related inward turning of the right lower or upper eyelid when the specific eyelid is not documented. This can cause the lashes or lid margin to rub against the eye.

Clinical signs

Common findings include eyelid inversion, irritation, tearing, redness, and a foreign-body sensation. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use this code when the record clearly states senile entropion of the right eye and does not specify which eyelid is involved. It is appropriate for age-related entropion documented on exam, consultation, or operative notes. If the eyelid is identified, use the more specific code.

Do not use for

Do not use it for entropion of the left eye, bilateral entropion, or non-senile causes. Check documentation if the note describes spasm, scarring, or another eyelid disorder.

Coding tip

Confirm that both laterality and the unspecified eyelid are supported in the chart before assigning H02.033.
