Medical Report - Surgery - Refractive Error [MR9175]

Preliminary questions [26286]

[1]26213

there is some evidence that having surgery for retinal detachment may be a factor in the development or worsening of the condition under consideration.

26394 [2] the veteran has had surgery for retinal detachment at some time.

[3]26214

the veteran has had surgery for retinal detachment of side and site of the body at some time.

26289 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the surgery for retinal detachment and VEA service for astigmatism.

26290 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the surgery for retinal detachment and VEA service for the clinical onset of astigmatism.

26295 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the surgery for retinal detachment and eligible service for the clinical onset of astigmatism.

or

26294 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the surgery for retinal detachment and operational service for the clinical onset of astigmatism.

or

[4]7334

the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred after the end of the veteran's last period of VEA service.

[5]7335

the condition under consideration permanently worsened.

26293 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the surgery for retinal detachment and VEA service for the clinical worsening of astigmatism.

26297 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the surgery for retinal detachment and eligible service for the clinical worsening of astigmatism.

or

26296 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the surgery for retinal detachment and operational service for the clinical worsening of astigmatism.

Clinical onset and operational service [26294]

[6]26301

the veteran had surgery for retinal detachment of side and site of the body within the eighteen months before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.

26228 — the retinal detachment of side and site of the body, for which the veteran had surgery, is causally related to operational service. [7] [8]

Clinical onset and eligible service [26295]

[9]39837

the veteran had surgery for retinal detachment of side and site of the body within the twelve months before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.

26229 — the retinal detachment of side and site of the body, for which the veteran had surgery, is causally related to eligible service. [10] [8]

Clinical worsening and operational service [26296]

[11]26292

the veteran had surgery for retinal detachment of side and site of the body within the eighteen months before the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration.

26228 — the retinal detachment of side and site of the body, for which the veteran had surgery, is causally related to operational service. [12] [8]

[13]26230

the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred prior to that part of operational service to which the retinal detachment of side and site of the body, for which the veteran had surgery, is causally related.

Clinical worsening and eligible service [26297]

[14]39838

the veteran had surgery for retinal detachment of side and site of the body within the twelve months before the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration.

26229 — the retinal detachment of side and site of the body, for which the veteran had surgery, is causally related to eligible service. [15] [8]

[16]26231

the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred prior to that part of eligible service to which the retinal detachment of side and site of the body, for which the veteran had surgery, is causally related. [17]
