Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claim for a compensable evaluation for bilateral hearing loss, stating that the criteria for such an evaluation were not met.
The deciding factor: The veteran's audiometric findings equated to Level I hearing in the right ear and Level II in the left ear, resulting in a noncompensable evaluation under VA regulations.
