ICD-10 Code H02.841 – Edema of right upper eyelid (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H02.841 – Edema of right upper eyelid
What it is
This code identifies swelling of the right upper eyelid. Use it when documentation names edema in that specific eyelid and no broader eye condition is the primary diagnosis.
Clinical signs
Typical findings include visible puffiness, fullness, or thickening of the right upper lid. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation for laterality and whether the swelling is isolated.
When to use this code
Use H02.841 when the provider documents edema limited to the right upper eyelid. It is appropriate for localized eyelid swelling from a recorded cause or when the note only states the edema itself. If the record identifies a different eyelid, site, or a more specific diagnosis, code that instead.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for generalized facial swelling, orbital edema, or unspecified eyelid swelling. Check documentation if the swelling is part of a broader disorder or if laterality is not clearly stated.
Coding tip
Verify both laterality and eyelid location in the note before assigning H02.841.
