Injury of eye and orbit (S05) ICD-10-CM
The S05 code range covers injury of eye and orbit with 132 ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes. 90 of them are billable and valid for claim submission in fiscal year 2027, and the category headers group them but cannot themselves be billed.
Includes
This note appears immediately under a three character code title to further define, or give examples of, the content of the category.
- open wound of eye and orbit
Type 2 Excludes
A type 2 excludes note represents "Not included here". An excludes2 note indicates that the condition excluded is not part of the condition represented by the code, but a patient may have both conditions at the same time. When an Excludes2 note appears under a code, it is acceptable to use both the code and the excluded code together, when appropriate.
- 2nd cranial [optic] nerve injury S04.0
- 3rd cranial [oculomotor] nerve injury S04.1
- open wound of eyelid and periocular area S01.1
- orbital bone fracture S02.1 S02.3 S02.8
- superficial injury of eyelid S00.1 S00.2
7th Character Note
Certain ICD-10-CM categories have applicable 7th characters. The applicable 7th character is required for all codes within the category, or as the notes in the Tabular List instruct. The 7th character must always be the 7th character in the data field. If a code that requires a 7th character is not 6 characters, a placeholder X must be used to fill in the empty characters.
- The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from category S05
7th Character
Indicates that a seventh character is to be assigned to codes in a subcategory.
- A - initial encounter
- D - subsequent encounter
- S - sequela

About the S05 Code Range
Injuries to the eye and its socket include scratches, bruises, cuts, penetrating wounds, and an eye torn away.
The subdivisions separate injuries by type. S05.0 addresses conjunctival injuries and corneal scratches, while S05.1 addresses bruising. Cuts distinguish whether tissue inside the eye protrudes or is lost. Penetrating wounds distinguish the socket from the eyeball and whether a foreign body is present. Most subdivisions further distinguish the right eye, left eye, or an unspecified eye. The seventh character distinguishes an initial encounter, a subsequent encounter, or a sequela, meaning an aftereffect.
