Partly granted
The Board denied service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder, basal cell carcinoma, and granted a 10 percent rating for bilateral pinguecula.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support the claim for service connection due to lack of credible supporting evidence for in-service stressors or other relevant factors, while the Veteran's bilateral pinguecula met the criteria for a 10 percent disability rating.
