COURT OF APPEALS OF VIRGINIA
Present: 	Judges Kelsey, Petty and Senior Judge Bumgardner
WAL MART STORES, INC. AND
INSURANCE COMPANY OF THE STATE OF
PENNSYLVANIA
MEMORANDUM OPINION*
v. 	Record No. 0497-06-3 	PER CURIAM
JUNE 27, 2006
REBA K. BRANHAM BLANKENSHIP
FROM THE VIRGINIA WORKERS’ COMPENSATION COMMISSION
(Monica Taylor Monday; Gentry Locke Rakes & Moore, on brief),
for appellants.
No brief for appellee.
Wal Mart Stores, Inc. and its insurer appeal a decision of the Workers’ Compensation
Commission finding that Reba K. Branham Blankenship proved her eye condition constituted a
compensable consequence of her October 20, 2001 injury by accident. We have reviewed the
record and the commission’s opinion and find that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we
affirm for the reasons stated by the commission in its final opinion. See Blankenship v.
Wal Mart Stores, Inc. et. al., VWC File No. 207-90-66 (Jan. 31, 2006). We dispense with oral
argument and summarily affirm because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented
in the materials before the Court and argument would not aid the decisional process. See Code
§ 17.1-403; Rule 5A:27.
Affirmed.
* Pursuant to Code § 17.1-413, this opinion is not designated for publication.
