NTF4 Gene Glaucoma Open Angle Type 1F Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the NTF4 Gene Glaucoma Open Angle Type 1F Genetic Test to help diagnose and manage glaucoma. This test is designed to analyze the NTF4 gene and identify any mutations or variations that may be present.
Test Details
The NTF4 gene is associated with glaucoma, open angle type 1F. This type of glaucoma is characterized by progressive damage to the optic nerve, resulting in vision loss and potential blindness.
Using NGS (next-generation sequencing) technology, our genetic test can accurately analyze the NTF4 gene and provide valuable information about an individual’s risk for developing glaucoma or passing it on to their offspring.
Cost and Components
The cost of the NTF4 Gene Glaucoma Open Angle Type 1F 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
Once the sample is received, the report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks.
Test Type and Department
The NTF4 Gene Glaucoma Open Angle Type 1F Genetic Test falls under the category of Ophthalmology Disorders. It is conducted by our experienced Ophthalmologist in the Genetics department.
Pre Test Information
Prior to undergoing the NTF4 Gene Glaucoma Open Angle Type 1F Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by NTF4 Gene Glaucoma Open Angle Type 1F.
Importance of Genetic Testing for Glaucoma
Genetic testing can provide valuable information for the diagnosis and management of glaucoma. It can help confirm a diagnosis, assess an individual’s risk, and guide treatment decisions. However, it is important to note that genetic testing for glaucoma is not a routine part of eye exams and should be discussed with a healthcare provider or genetic counselor.
