Denied
The Board denied service connection for bilateral hearing loss due to a lack of evidence showing the Veteran has a current disability as defined by VA regulations.
The deciding factor: The July 2022 medical opinion concluded that there was no objective evidence of a current hearing loss disability, despite conceded noise exposure in service.
