ICD-10 Code H02.714 – Chloasma of left upper eyelid and periocular area (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.714 – Chloasma of left upper eyelid and periocular area
What it is
H02.714 identifies chloasma, a localized hyperpigmentation affecting the left upper eyelid and nearby periocular skin. Use it when documentation specifies this exact site and diagnosis.
Clinical signs
Typical findings are brown to gray-brown patches on the left upper eyelid or surrounding periocular area. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.
When to use this code
Use this code when the record clearly states chloasma on the left upper eyelid or periocular area. It is appropriate for site-specific pigmentation documented by the clinician, even when the note describes cosmetic concern rather than pain or inflammation.
If the provider documents melasma or chloasma without laterality or location, check documentation before assigning H02.714.
Do not use for
Do not use it for generalized facial pigmentation, unspecified chloasma, or pigmentation on another eyelid. Check documentation if the note describes a different skin disorder or an uncertain diagnosis.
Coding tip
Verify both laterality and anatomic site in the chart before coding, because this code is specific to the left upper eyelid and periocular area.
