ICD-10 Code H02.103 – Unspecified ectropion of right eye, unspecified eyelid (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.103 – Unspecified ectropion of right eye, unspecified eyelid
What it is
H02.103 identifies ectropion affecting the right eye eyelid, but the eyelid is not specified. Ectropion means the eyelid turns outward, so the inner surface is exposed and may not protect the eye normally.
Clinical signs
Common findings include outward turning of the lid margin, tearing, irritation, redness, and exposure of the conjunctiva. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.
When to use this code
Use this code when the record clearly documents ectropion of the right eye and does not identify the upper or lower eyelid. It is appropriate when the provider describes the condition as unspecified eyelid or when laterality is right but lid location is not stated. If the note names a specific eyelid, code that more specific option instead.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for left eye ectropion, bilateral ectropion, or cases where the eyelid is specified. Do not use it when documentation only mentions eyelid malposition without confirming ectropion.
Coding tip
Check the ophthalmology note for laterality and eyelid detail before assigning H02.103.
