Partly granted
The Veteran's claims for a higher rating for mental health issues and eye condition were denied. Claims for service connection for peripheral neuropathy and sleep apnea were remanded.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the evidence did not support a higher rating for the mental health condition and eye condition, but remanded the other claims due to insufficient evidence or the need for further examination.
