Preliminary questions [13446]
there is some evidence that exposure to ionising radiation may be a factor in the development of the condition under consideration.13459 the veteran's blepharitis in side and site of the body is acute.
the veteran has had exposure to ionising radiation at some time. the veteran has had exposure to ionising radiation in the regions of side and site of the body at some time. exposure of side and site of the body of the veteran to ionising radiation occurred immediately before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.13499 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the exposure to ionising radiation and VEA service for the clinical onset of blepharitis.
13500 — the veteran has established the causal connection between exposure to ionising radiation and operational service for the clinical onset of blepharitis.
or
13501 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the exposure to ionising radiation and eligible service for the clinical onset of blepharitis.
Clinical onset and operational service [13500]
exposure to ionising radiation in the region of side and site of the body, immediately before the clinical onset of blepharitis of side and site of the body occurred on operational service. exposure to ionising radiation in the region of side and site of the body, immediately before the clinical onset of blepharitis of side and site of the body on operational service, was due to the veteran's serious default, wilful act or serious breach of discipline.or
exposure to ionising radiation in the region of side and site of the body, occurred because of an illness or injury which is identifiable.19718 — the identified illness or injury, for which exposure to ionising radiation in the region of side and site of the body occurred, is causally related to operational service.
Clinical onset and eligible service [13501]
exposure to ionising radiation in the region of side and site of the body, immediately before the clinical onset of blepharitis of side and site of the body occurred on eligible service. exposure to ionising radiation in the region of side and site of the body, immediately before the clinical onset of blepharitis of side and site of the body, on eligible service, occurred as a causal result of eligible service duties. exposure to ionising radiation in the region of side and site of the body immediately before the clinical onset of blepharitis of side and site of the body on eligible service was due to the veteran's serious default, wilful act or serious breach of discipline.or
exposure to ionising radiation in the region of side and site of the body, occurred because of an illness or injury which is identifiable.19719 — the identified illness or injury, for which exposure to ionising radiation in the region of side and site of the body occurred, is causally related to eligible service.
