ICD-10 Code H27 – Other disorders of lens (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code H27 – Other disorders of lens
What it is
H27 identifies lens disorders that are not classified elsewhere. Use it for abnormal lens conditions that affect the eye but do not fit a more specific ICD-10 lens diagnosis.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Common lens-related findings may include visual disturbance, lens opacity, displacement, or other structural abnormalities noted on eye examination.
When to use this code
Use H27 when the provider documents a lens disorder and no more specific code applies. It is appropriate for nonspecific or unusual lens abnormalities recorded in the chart. Confirm the exact diagnosis before coding, especially if cataract or dislocation is separately documented.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for cataracts, lens dislocation, or other specifically indexed lens conditions when a more precise code is available. Check documentation if the diagnosis is unclear.
Coding tip
Review the ophthalmology note for the exact lens diagnosis before assigning H27.
