Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for a back condition, but remanded the claims for right knee condition, vision problems, and hypertension for further development.
The deciding factor: The August 2023 VA medical opinion provided evidence that the Veteran's back condition was related to his military service, while other conditions required additional evidence or examination.
