2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.134 – Senile ectropion of left upper eyelid
What it is
H02.134 identifies outward turning of the left upper eyelid due to age-related laxity. This can leave the eyelid margin poorly apposed to the eye and affect normal lid closure.
Clinical signs
Typical findings include lid eversion, tearing, irritation, and exposure of the conjunctiva. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.
When to use this code
Use this code when the record specifically documents senile ectropion affecting the left upper eyelid. It is appropriate when the provider notes age-related eyelid laxity as the cause. Check documentation if the side, lid, or etiology is unclear.
Do not use for
Do not use it for ectropion of a different eyelid, a different side, or non-senile causes such as paralysis or scarring. Check documentation when the type of ectropion is not stated.
Coding tip
Verify both laterality and eyelid location in the assessment before assigning H02.134.
