In this video, Leah B from Prestige Veteran Medical Consulting—an Army veteran and former compensation and pension examiner—explains everything veterans need to know about cataracts and VA disability benefits. She breaks down what cataracts are, how they may be caused or worsened by military service (such as through trauma, radiation, or steroid use), and the two paths to service connection: primary and secondary. Leah also details how the VA rates cataracts under diagnostic code 6027, the role of pre- and post-operative evaluations, and what documentation veterans should gather to support their claim—including medical records, lay statements, and physician opinions. She emphasizes the importance of CMP exams and encourages veterans to seek help from accredited professionals when filing or appealing claims.
