Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for service connection for cataracts, finding no evidence of an etiological relationship between the condition and service or any service-connected disability.
The deciding factor: The VA medical opinions concluded that the cataract condition was age-related and not related to toxic exposure or a service-connected disability.
