— Ectopia lentis is a condition characterized by the displacement or malposition of the crystalline lens of the eye. This condition can occur due to various reasons, but when it is specifically linked to a genetic cause, the FBN1 gene is often involved. The FBN1 gene is responsible for the production of fibrillin-1, a protein […]
Ectopia lentis refers to the displacement or malposition of the eye’s lens, a condition that can occur due to various reasons, including genetic factors. One such genetic cause is mutations in the ADAMTSL4 gene, leading to an autosomal recessive form of isolated ectopia lentis. Understanding this condition, its symptoms, and the significance of genetic testing […]
Symptoms of LOXL1 Gene Exfoliation Syndrome Susceptibility to Genetic Test Exfoliation syndrome (XFS) is a systemic condition characterized by the accumulation of fibrillar extracellular material in various organs, including the eyes. This syndrome is the most common identifiable cause of open-angle glaucoma, posing significant risks to those affected. The LOXL1 gene has been strongly associated […]
Exudative vitreoretinopathy, also known as Familial Exudative Vitreoretinopathy (FEVR), is a rare genetic disorder that affects the growth and development of blood vessels in the retina of the eye. This condition can lead to visual impairment or blindness if not diagnosed and treated in a timely manner. One of the genes associated with this condition […]
In the realm of genetic testing, understanding the intricacies of specific genes and their associated conditions is crucial for early diagnosis and management. One such condition, Exudative Vitreoretinopathy Type 2 (EVR2), linked to mutations in the NDP gene, underscores the importance of genetic testing for individuals at risk. DNA Labs UAE stands at the forefront […]
Exudative vitreoretinopathy type 5, caused by mutations in the TSPAN12 gene, is a genetic disorder that affects the eyes. It can lead to a variety of symptoms, impacting the quality of life of those affected. Understanding the symptoms and the availability of genetic testing can provide crucial information for managing this condition. DNA Labs UAE […]
Understanding KIF21A Gene Fibrosis of Extraocular Muscles Congenital Type 1 Fibrosis of the extraocular muscles congenital type 1 (CFEOM1) is a rare genetic disorder that primarily affects the muscles that control eye movement. It is caused by mutations in the KIF21A gene. Individuals with this condition often present with a distinctive eye movement disorder from […]
