Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for dry eye syndrome and urinary frequency/urgency, but remanded the claims for dermatitis, hyperhidrosis, and bilateral shin splints for further evidence.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms of dry eye syndrome and urinary frequency/urgency are directly related to his active-duty service based on medical opinions and lay statements.
