ICD-10 Code H27.113 – Subluxation of lens, bilateral (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide

The ICD-10 code for Subluxation of lens, bilateral is H27.113.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H27.113 – Subluxation of lens, bilateral

What it is

H27.113 identifies partial displacement of the crystalline lenses in both eyes. The lens remains in the eye but is not fully centered in its normal position.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Common findings include lens decentration, visual distortion, monocular diplopia, or reduced visual acuity, often confirmed on eye examination.

When to use this code

Use this code when the provider documents bilateral lens subluxation or bilateral ectopia lentis. It fits cases where both lenses are partially displaced, whether from trauma, hereditary disease, or another documented cause. If the laterality is not clearly bilateral, check documentation.

Do not use for

Do not use it for complete lens dislocation, unilateral subluxation, or nonspecific lens opacity. If the record only says “lens problem” or another eye disorder, verify the diagnosis before coding.

Coding tip

Confirm that the note explicitly states bilateral involvement; laterality drives this code.
