Partly granted

Service connection for an eye disability was denied. Entitlement to service connection for right and left hand disabilities was remanded.

The deciding factor: The evidence of record persuasively weighs against finding that the Veteran's current eye diagnoses began during active service or are related to an in-service injury or disease.
