Partly granted
The Board denied a disability rating in excess of 30 percent for asthma and remanded the claims for service connection for cataracts and obstructive sleep apnea.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's asthma did not meet the criteria for a higher rating, while the claims for service connection for cataracts and OSA required further medical evidence due to inadequate opinions provided by examiners.
