ICD-10 Code H02.715 – Chloasma of left lower eyelid and periocular area (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.715 – Chloasma of left lower eyelid and periocular area
What it is
H02.715 identifies chloasma, or localized hyperpigmentation, affecting the left lower eyelid and nearby periocular skin. Use it when the record specifies this exact side and anatomic location.
Clinical signs
Typical findings include a flat brown or gray-brown patch around the eyelid with no raised lesion. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation for laterality and whether the pigmentation is described as chloasma.
When to use this code
Use this code when the clinician documents chloasma on the left lower eyelid or periocular area. It is appropriate for office notes, dermatology assessments, or ophthalmic documentation that clearly identifies the site. If the record only says facial hyperpigmentation, check documentation.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for unspecified eyelid pigmentation, bilateral involvement, or hyperpigmentation at another facial site. If the note describes a different pigment disorder, check documentation.
Coding tip
Capture laterality exactly; this code is only for the left lower eyelid and periocular area.
