Entropion and trichiasis of eyelid. H02.0 is a non-billable ICD-10 code for Entropion and trichiasis of eyelid.
For repair of entropion (inward turning of upper or lower lid) or ectropion (outward turning of upper or lower lid), use the eyelid repair codes (67914-67924). With entropion, the lower lid droops so much that it turns away from the eyeball. This condition can damage the eye, so surgical repair is medically necessary.
Trichiasis describes eyelashes which are mis-directed towards the eyeball, and should not be confused with entropion, in which the eyelid itself is rolled inwards. This is an important distinction, as the treatment for the two conditions is not the same.
Trichiasis is the official name for a condition characterized by misdirected or abnormally positioned eyelashes. Trichiasis, sometimes caused by entropion causes discomfort and irritation to the eye, and can lead to permanent damage to the cornea and vision loss. Symptoms of trichiasis include: Constant eye irritation.
Trichiasis is an anatomic misalignment of eyelashes, which rub against the eyeball, in a patient with no entropion. Trichiasis is most often idiopathic, but known causes include blepharitis. Symptoms and signs include itching and burning of the eyelid margins with redness and edema.

Abstract. Trichiasis is a condition of abnormal eyelash growth with misdirection posteriorly. Distichiasis is an abnormality of a second row of lashes emanating from meibomian glands. In both conditions the lid margin is in a normal position.
The waterline—a beauty term, not a medical term—is the line of skin between the eyelashes and the eye. It's as close to your eye as you can put eyeliner without actually drawing on your cornea.

Cicatricial Entropion. Cicatricial entropion results from chronic inflammation leading to fibrosis, scarring and shortening of the posterior lamella. These cases are associated with other stigmata of chronic inflammation such as symblepharon, forniceal shortening, keratinization, and loss of normal margin structures.
Trichiasis is a common eyelid condition where the eyelashes are misdirected and grow inwards toward the eye. The eyelashes rub against the eye and inner eyelid causing significant irritation. This can lead to permanent damage to the eye if left untreated.
