Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the Veteran's claim for a compensable rating for right eye total corneal leukoma and pseudophakia with light perception only to correct a pre-decisional duty to assist error.
The deciding factor: Remand is required as the VA examiner did not complete the appropriate scar disability benefits questionnaire, which was necessary to adequately evaluate the Veteran's right eye scar under 38 C.F.R. § 4.118.
