ICD-10 Code H05.119 – Granuloma of unspecified orbit (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide

The ICD-10 code for Granuloma of unspecified orbit is H05.119.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H05.119 – Granuloma of unspecified orbit

What it is

H05.119 identifies a granulomatous mass in the orbit when the side is not specified. Use it for documented orbital granuloma, not for generalized eye inflammation.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Commonly, an orbital mass may cause swelling, pain, proptosis, or restricted eye movement, but the record should confirm a granuloma diagnosis.

When to use this code

Use this code when the provider documents a granuloma of the orbit and does not identify right or left. It also fits cases where imaging or pathology supports an orbital granulomatous lesion without laterality. If the note names a specific orbital site or another cause, code that documented condition instead.

Do not use for

Do not use it for nonspecific eye inflammation, eyelid lesions, or orbital tumors without granuloma documentation. Check documentation if the record describes laterality or a different orbital disorder.

Coding tip

Assign H05.119 only when the provider clearly documents “unspecified orbit” or laterality is not stated.
