CRYBA4 Gene Cataract Type 23 Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the CRYBA4 Gene Cataract Type 23 Genetic Test to help diagnose and manage this rare form of congenital cataracts. This test can identify mutations in the CRYBA4 gene that may be responsible for cataract type 23.
Test Details
Cataract type 23 is a genetic condition characterized by the formation of cloudy areas in the lens of the eye. If left untreated, it can cause vision problems or even blindness. Our NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) genetic testing method analyzes the DNA sequence of the CRYBA4 gene to look for any changes or abnormalities that may be present.
Test Components and Price
The CRYBA4 Gene Cataract Type 23 Genetic Test is priced at 4400.0 AED. The test can be performed using a blood sample, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Report Delivery
Once the sample is received, the report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks.
Test Type and Doctor
The CRYBA4 Gene Cataract Type 23 Genetic Test falls under the category of Ophthalmology Disorders. Our team of experienced Ophthalmologists will handle the testing process.
Test Department
The CRYBA4 Gene Cataract Type 23 Genetic Test is conducted in our Genetics department.
Pre Test Information
Prior to the test, we recommend providing the clinical history of the patient who is undergoing the CRYBA4 Gene Cataract Type 23 NGS Genetic DNA Test. Additionally, a Genetic Counselling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by the CRYBA4 Gene Cataract Type 23 NGS Genetic DNA Test gene.
Treatment and Management
If a mutation is identified, genetic counseling may be recommended to help individuals understand the implications of the diagnosis and to discuss options for managing the condition. Treatment for cataract type 23 typically involves surgical removal of the affected lens and replacement with an artificial lens implant.
