VSX1 Gene Corneal Dystrophy Posterior Polymorphous Type 1 Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the VSX1 Gene Corneal Dystrophy Posterior Polymorphous Type 1 Genetic Test to help diagnose and manage this rare genetic disorder that affects the cornea of the eye. This test is performed using NGS technology and can detect mutations in the VSX1 gene.
Test Details
The VSX1 gene is associated with corneal dystrophy, posterior polymorphous, type 1. This genetic disorder can cause changes in the shape and clarity of the cornea, leading to vision problems and discomfort. Early diagnosis through NGS genetic testing can help prevent vision loss and allow for appropriate management and treatment.
Test Components and Price
The cost of the VSX1 Gene Corneal Dystrophy Posterior Polymorphous Type 1 Genetic Test is AED 4400.0. The test requires a blood sample, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Report Delivery and Method
After the sample is collected, the report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks. The test is performed using NGS technology, which analyzes the DNA sequence of the VSX1 gene to detect any variations or abnormalities that may be causing the disease.
Test Type and Doctor
The VSX1 Gene Corneal Dystrophy Posterior Polymorphous Type 1 Genetic Test falls under the category of Ophthalmology Disorders. It is recommended to consult with an Ophthalmologist for this test.
Test Department and Pre Test Information
This test is conducted in the Genetics department. Before undergoing the VSX1 Gene Corneal Dystrophy Posterior Polymorphous Type 1 Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a Genetic Counselling session may be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by the gene mutation.
Importance of Genetic Testing
NGS genetic testing for corneal dystrophy, posterior polymorphous, type 1 can not only aid in the diagnosis and management of the condition but also help identify carriers of the gene mutation. This information is crucial for family planning and genetic counseling.
At DNA Labs UAE, we strive to provide accurate and reliable genetic testing services. Our VSX1 Gene Corneal Dystrophy Posterior Polymorphous Type 1 Genetic Test can contribute to early detection and appropriate treatment of this rare genetic disorder.
