Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for cervical strain, right hand condition, and bilateral dry eye syndrome. The issues of a compensable rating for bilateral hearing loss and service connection for left ankle condition were remanded.
The deciding factor: Service connection was granted based on the Veteran's lay statements and medical evidence supporting that his conditions were caused by or aggravated during military service.
