Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for nightmare disorder and dismissed the appeal for chronic dry eyes due to a full grant of benefits.
The deciding factor: The evidence was at least evenly balanced as to whether the Veteran's nightmare disorder had its onset in service, leading to a grant with reasonable doubt resolved in favor of the Veteran. The appeal for chronic dry eyes was dismissed because it was fully granted by the AOJ.
