ICD-10 Code H02.725 – Madarosis of left lower eyelid and periocular area (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.725 – Madarosis of left lower eyelid and periocular area
What it is
Use this code for loss of eyelashes or eyebrow hair affecting the left lower eyelid and nearby periocular skin. It describes localized madarosis, not a generalized hair-loss disorder.
Clinical signs
Findings usually include partial or complete absence of hair in the left lower eyelid or adjacent periocular area. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.
When to use this code
Assign H02.725 when the record specifically documents madarosis limited to the left lower eyelid and periocular area. Use it for outpatient, specialty, or problem-list documentation that identifies this exact location. If the note only says eyelash loss without laterality or site, check documentation.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for bilateral, right-sided, or unspecified madarosis. Do not apply it when the hair loss is better explained by another documented eyelid disorder or a systemic condition; check documentation.
Coding tip
Verify laterality and eyelid location in the note before coding, because H02.725 is site-specific.
