About H02.40
H02.40 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for unspecified ptosis of eyelid. It belongs to category H02 (other disorders of eyelid), block H00-H05 (disorders of eyelid, lacrimal system and orbit) and chapter 7 (diseases of the eye and adnexa). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 4 subcodes must be used instead.
Within H02.4, choose H02.40 (Unspecified ptosis of eyelid) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: mechanical ptosis of eyelid (H02.41), Myogenic ptosis of eyelid (H02.42) and paralytic ptosis of eyelid (H02.43).
To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: H02.401 (eyelid), H02.402 (eyelid), H02.403 (eyelids) and H02.409 (eyelid).
It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
