Granted
The Board granted service connection for residuals of a right eye injury based on new and relevant evidence.
The deciding factor: The private medical opinion provided at least as likely as not evidence that the Veteran's current macular hole was related to trauma sustained in service, which satisfied all elements of direct service connection.
