    Before REYNA, HUGHES, and STOLL, Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM.
    Appellant Robert J. Tropiak appeals a decision of the
    United States Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims affirm-
    ing the Board of Veterans’ Appeals decision to deny Mr.
    Tropiak a compensable rating for his foot condition under
    Diagnostic Code 7806. Tropiak v. Shulkin, No. 17-0676,
    
    2018 WL 1074703
    (Vet. App. Feb. 28, 2018). We find that
    Mr. Tropiak’s appeal raises only factual issues or issues of
    application of law to fact. Because we lack jurisdiction to
    review such issues, Cook v. Principi, 
    353 F.3d 937
    , 939
    (Fed. Cir. 2003); see also 38 U.S.C. § 7292(d)(2), we dismiss.
    DISMISSED
    No costs.
