I have created few services in Kubernetes with type: LoadBalancer.

Platform: EKS.

Is there a way to get number of 4xx or 5xx errors from this LoadBalancer? I have tried the following:

Prometheus - Does not seem to be any metric collected for services with HTTP response codes.

AWS Cloudwatch - Does not show data points for the 2xx, 3xx, 4xx or 5xx errors. Shows other metrics like latency, request counts, etc.

in CloudWatch docs ELB metrics show 4xx and 5xx errors:

HTTPCode_Backend_2XX
HTTPCode_Backend_3XX
HTTPCode_Backend_4XX
HTTPCode_Backend_5XX

From EKS environment you could get the ELB id/name (e.g. with kubectl get svc SERVICE_NAME -o yaml), and use that to extract the metrics from CloudWatch. It's a bit of a convoluted process, but logically could work.
