Last updated on January 9, 2023

I hope you enjoy reading this blog post.

If you want to learn how to implement these strategies to get the VA benefits you deserve, click here to speak with a VA claim expert for free.

Did you know there are 834 conditions eligible for compensation in the official VA disability conditions list?

In this post, we reveal and explain the complete VA disability conditions list by body system and diagnostic code.

Don’t forget that to be eligible for VA disability compensation, you must first have:

  • An honorable discharge (can’t be dishonorable)
  • A medical diagnosis of a disability condition
  • A “nexus” for service connection either directly related to military service, secondary to another condition, or a presumptive disability, and
  • Current symptoms of the condition that negatively affect your work, life, and/or social functioning

VA Disability Conditions List by Body System and VA Diagnostic Code (Official)

In this Ultimate Guide to the VA Disability Claims List, which is comprised of 834 disability conditions, you’ll discover each eligible condition arranged by body system and diagnostic code (lowest to highest) from CFR Title 38, Part 4, the Schedule for Rating Disabilities.

VA DISABILITIES OF THE EYE

VA disabilities of the eye

What are eye disabilities for VA rating purposes?

Of the five main senses, eyesight is used and relied upon the most.

Your eye is the primary organ of the visual system because it takes what you see (e.g., faces, images, nature) and turns them into an electric signal, which moves from the optic nerve to the brain.

Once the signal reaches the visual cortex, it is “interpreted” by the brain so you can make sense of the environment.

LIST OF VA ANALOGOUS CONDITIONS AND DIAGNOSTIC CODES

What is an “Analogous” VA disability?

The Analogous diagnostic codes are used by the VA when a diagnosed condition is not directly listed in CFR Title 38, Part 4, the Schedule for Rating Disabilities. Conditions that are NOT in the general schedule can be rated “analogously” with a condition that IS. “Analogous” means the condition that is closest to the ratable condition that best describes the primary symptoms. For example, post concussive headaches are not listed in the general schedule, only migraine headaches. However, if you have post concussive headaches that are severe enough to be eligible for a VA rating, then they can be rated under Diagnostic Code 8100 for migraine headaches, since that is the diagnostic code that is closest to your condition with similar symptoms.

  • Achalasia is a condition that limits the esophagus’ ability to move food down to the stomach. It is rated under code 7203, stricture of the esophagus.
  • Acromioclavicular separation (a.k.a. AC separationseparated shoulder) is an injury where the clavicle is separated from the scapula. It may be rated under code 5003, degenerative arthritis, or 5010, traumatic arthritis, if the minimum requirements for rating under code 5201, limited motion of the shoulder, are not met.
  • Aphasia is a condition of the brain where you are unable to understand and process language. If it is caused by an injury to the head, it is not rated analogously, but is rated as a part of a traumatic brain injury (TBI) rating. If it is caused by an illness or other condition, it is rated under code 9326, neurocognitive disorder.
  • Aphonia is the inability to make vocal sounds. If it is caused by nerve damage, rate it under the affected nerve. These can be found on The Cranial Nerves page. If there is no definitive physical cause, but is instead caused by a mental disorder, it is rated under code 9424, conversion disorder.
  • Arnold-Chiari malformation syndrome is a condition where the brain is malformed, disrupting the flow of cerebrospinal fluid. It is rated under code 8003, benign brain growth.
  • Arteriovenous malformation is a condition where abnormal connections between the arteries and veins form. If it occurs in the vessels feeding the brain, it is rated under code 8009, hemorrhage of the brain vessels.
  • Artery stenosis occurs when an artery narrows, causing low or blocked blood flow to various parts of the body. Its rating code depends on the location of the narrowed artery. Vertebral artery stenosis, narrowing of the arteries in the neck, is rated under code 8008, thrombosis of the brain vessels. Renal artery stenosis, narrowing of the arteries of the kidneys, is rated under code 7534, atherosclerotic renal disease. For all other artery stenoses, rate them under the code that best describes the symptoms for the system it affects.
  • Aseptic meningitis is a type of meningitis infection around the brain. It is rated under code 8019, cerebrospinal meningitis.
  • Atopic dermatitis is a skin condition that causes scaly rashes. It is rated under code 7806, dermatitis.
  • Avascular necrosis of the femoral head is a condition where the flow of blood is blocked, causing the bone to die. It is rated under code 5003, degenerative arthritis.
  • Barrett’s Esophagus is a condition where abnormal cells form in the lower part of the esophagus. It is rated under code 7203, stricture of the esophagus.
  • Behcet’s Syndrome is a condition that causes the blood vessels to become irritated and swell. Symptoms can involve the eyes, joints, mouth, skin and reproductive organs. It is rated under the appropriate code for the symptoms. For example, if the main symptom was joint pain, it would be coded 5002, systemic arthritis.
  • Blepharospasm is a condition where the eye twitches uncontrollably. It is rated under code 8103, convulsive tic.
  • Carpal tunnel is a condition where the median nerve gets pinched as it passes through the wrist into the hand. It is rated under the codes for the median nerve.
  • Celiac disease (sprue) is a condition where the lining of the small intestine is damaged by eating gluten. It is rated under code 7319, irritable colon syndrome.
  • Cerebral aneurysm occurs when there is a weak spot in the wall of a blood vessel in the brain. This weak spot bulges out and pushes against the brain tissues. It can be rated under code 7112, small artery aneurysm.
  • Cerebellar degenerative disease is a disease that causes the neurons in the brain that control coordination and balance to die. It is rated under code 8014, meningovascular syphilis.
  • Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease is an inherited condition that affects the peripheral nerves. It is rated under code 8023, progressive muscular atrophy.
  • Chest pain that is not caused by another condition is rated under code 5321, muscles of respiration.
  • Chondromalacia patella occurs when the tissue below the kneecap is irritated and causes pain. It is rated under code 5014, osteomalacia.
  • Chronic renal failure (a.k.a. chronic kidney diseasechronic renal insufficiency) is a condition where the kidneys fail to properly filter waste from the blood. It is rated under code 7502, chronic nephritis.
  • Cluster headaches are severe pain in only one half of the head at a time. If it is caused by traumatic brain injury, it can be rated under code 8045, residuals of TBI. If it is not, it can be rated under code 8100, migraine headaches.
