ICD-10 Code H11.32 – Conjunctival hemorrhage, left eye (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H11.32 – Conjunctival hemorrhage, left eye
What it is
H11.32 identifies bleeding under the conjunctiva in the left eye. It describes a visible red patch on the white of the eye, usually from a small superficial blood vessel.
Clinical signs
Typical findings include a sharply demarcated red area on the conjunctiva without discharge or major pain. Vision is usually unchanged; if symptoms are atypical, check documentation.
When to use this code
Use this code when the provider documents conjunctival hemorrhage specifically in the left eye. It fits isolated subconjunctival bleeding and laterality is confirmed in the record. If the note only says “eye hemorrhage,” you should verify the anatomic site before coding.
Do not use for
Do not use H11.32 for bleeding in the right eye, both eyes, or when the hemorrhage is not conjunctival. If the chart does not specify laterality or location, check documentation.
Coding tip
Confirm both the conjunctival location and left-eye laterality before assigning H11.32.
