Dismissed
The appeal of the claim for service connection for hypermetropia was dismissed due to an impermissible concurrent review selection. The Board granted readjudication of the previously disallowed PTSD claim based on new and relevant evidence.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on procedural grounds, specifically a violation of 38 C.F.R. § 3.2500(b) regarding concurrent AMA review options.
