Partly granted
The veteran's claim for an increased rating for left knee pain was denied. The claims for service connection for right knee condition and neck issues were remanded for further evaluation.
The deciding factor: The decision on the left knee was based on the lack of evidence showing significant functional limitation beyond a 10% rating.
