ICD-10 Code H05.332 – Deformity of left orbit due to trauma or surgery (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H05.332 – Deformity of left orbit due to trauma or surgery
What it is
This code identifies an acquired structural deformity of the left orbital socket caused by prior trauma or surgical intervention. Use it when the chart documents a lasting change in orbital shape rather than an acute injury.
Clinical signs
Clinical features may include visible asymmetry of the left orbit, contour irregularity, or sunken appearance after prior injury or surgery. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.
When to use this code
Use H05.332 when the provider documents a deformity of the left orbit and links it to trauma or surgery. It fits follow-up visits for residual anatomic change, reconstructive aftercare, or evaluation of a chronic post-procedural defect. Check documentation if the cause is unclear.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for acute orbital fracture, active infection, or nonspecific facial swelling without documented deformity. Do not assign it when the record only describes pain or bruising.
Coding tip
Confirm laterality and the documented cause; the code is specific to the left orbit and to trauma or surgery-related deformity.
