Partly granted
The veteran's claim for service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder was granted. However, the claims for earlier effective dates for glaucoma with pseudophakia, bilateral hearing loss, and tinnitus were denied.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the evidence of record at the time of the August 2023 and July 2024 agency decisions and any evidence submitted within 90 days from receipt of the VA Form 10182.
