In a dispute over a denial of disability benefits, Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims judgment is affirmed where the absence of a right to confrontation with the Veterans Health Administration ophthalmologist was not prejudicial to plaintiff’s claim as there was no evidence of record that established an actual causal nexus between plaintiff’s in-service injury and his cataracts.
