22402 the veteran has suffered from xerosis conjunctivae of side and site of the body at some time.
22008 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the xerosis conjunctivae and VEA service for conjunctivitis.
22009 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the xerosis conjunctivae and VEA service for the clinical onset of conjunctivitis.
22011 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the xerosis conjunctivae and operational service for the clinical onset of conjunctivitis.
or
22012 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the xerosis conjunctivae and eligible service for the clinical onset of conjunctivitis.
or
the clinical onset of conjunctivitis of side and site of the body occurred after the end of the veteran's last period of VEA service. the veteran's conjunctivitis of side and site of the body permanently worsened.22010 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the xerosis conjunctivae and VEA service for the clinical worsening of conjunctivitis.
22013 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the xerosis conjunctivae and operational service for the clinical worsening of conjunctivitis.
or
22014 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the xerosis conjunctivae and eligible service for the clinical worsening of conjunctivitis.
Clinical onset and operational service [22011]
the veteran suffered from xerosis conjunctivae of side and site of the body within the seven days immediately before the clinical onset of bacterial conjunctivitis of side and site of the body. the xerosis conjunctivae of side and site of the body is due to an illness or injury which is identifiable.22018 — the identified illness or injury which caused the xerosis conjunctivae of side and site of the body is causally related to operational service.
Clinical onset and eligible service [22012]
the veteran suffered from xerosis conjunctivae of side and site of the body within the seven days immediately before the clinical onset of bacterial conjunctivitis of side and site of the body. the xerosis conjunctivae of side and site of the body is due to an illness or injury which is identifiable.22019 — the identified illness or injury which caused the xerosis conjunctivae of side and site of the body is causally related to eligible service.
Clinical worsening and operational service [22013]
the veteran suffered from xerosis conjunctivae of side and site of the body within the seven days immediately before the clinical worsening of conjunctivitis of side and site of the body. the xerosis conjunctivae of side and site of the body is due to an illness or injury which is identifiable.22018 — the identified illness or injury which caused the xerosis conjunctivae of side and site of the body is causally related to operational service.
the clinical onset of conjunctivitis of side and site of the body occurred prior to that part of operational service to which the identified illness or injury, which caused the xerosis conjunctivae of side and site of the body, is causally related.Clinical worsening and eligible service [22014]
