Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for chronic allergic conjunctivitis and dismissed the appeal for sinusitis, as the AOJ had already granted benefits for this condition.
The deciding factor: Service connection was granted based on the Veteran's consistent treatment history and lay statements supporting a nexus to service, while the issue of sinusitis was dismissed due to an earlier grant by the AOJ.
