Granted
The Board granted service connection for right ear hearing loss and a rating of 10 percent, but no more, for bilateral hearing loss.
The deciding factor: The evidence showed that the Veteran's right ear hearing loss is related to his military service, meeting the criteria for direct service connection. The rating was determined based on the results of an August 2024 VA examination.
