Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for a headache disability and denied an initial compensable rating for dry eye syndrome.
The deciding factor: Service connection was granted based on the Veteran's service in the Southwest Asia theater of operations, while a compensable rating for dry eye syndrome was not supported by the evidence.
