Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issue of entitlement to service connection for a bilateral eye disability, to include glaucoma, pinguecula and cataracts, due to further development needed regarding exposure to PCP and an adequate medical opinion on the etiology of the Veteran's current eye conditions.
The deciding factor: Further development is necessary to determine if the Veteran was exposed to PCP during service and whether any bilateral eye disability is related to such exposure or his period of active service.
