Partly granted
The Board granted a 10 percent rating for migraine headaches but denied a compensable rating for bilateral dry eye syndrome.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's headache condition manifests in characteristic prostrating attacks once every two months, while the evidence does not support a higher rating for his dry eye syndrome.
