FZD4 Gene Exudative vitreoretinopathy Genetic Test
Are you or your loved one experiencing vision loss or blindness? Exudative vitreoretinopathy (EVR) could be the culprit. EVR is a rare genetic disorder that affects the retina, and one of the genes associated with this condition is the FZD4 gene.
If you suspect that you or your family member may have EVR, DNA Labs UAE offers a comprehensive FZD4 Gene Exudative vitreoretinopathy Genetic Test. This test utilizes NGS (next-generation sequencing) technology, which allows for the analysis of multiple genes simultaneously.
Test Details
The FZD4 Gene Exudative vitreoretinopathy Genetic Test is specifically designed to identify mutations in the FZD4 gene that may be causing EVR. By detecting these mutations, doctors can make a more accurate diagnosis and provide appropriate treatment and management for the condition.
It is important to note that genetic testing is not always necessary or recommended for everyone with EVR. However, it is typically recommended for individuals with a family history of the condition or those who have symptoms that suggest a genetic cause. If you are unsure whether genetic testing is appropriate for you, we recommend consulting with an ophthalmologist.
Test Components and Price
- Test Name: FZD4 Gene Exudative vitreoretinopathy Genetic Test
- Components: Blood or Extracted DNA or One drop Blood on FTA Card
- Price: 4400.0 AED
Sample Condition and Report Delivery
To perform the test, we require a blood sample or extracted DNA. Alternatively, one drop of blood on an FTA Card is also acceptable. After the sample is collected, the report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks.
Test Method and Type
The FZD4 Gene Exudative vitreoretinopathy Genetic Test utilizes NGS technology. NGS is an advanced genetic testing method that allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes. This technology is particularly useful for diagnosing genetic disorders like EVR, which can be caused by mutations in multiple genes.
Test Department and Doctor
The FZD4 Gene Exudative vitreoretinopathy Genetic Test is conducted by our Genetics department, under the supervision of an Ophthalmologist.
Pre Test Information
Prior to undergoing the FZD4 Gene Exudative vitreoretinopathy Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. This includes any relevant information about the symptoms and family members affected by EVR. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by the FZD4 gene.
Genetic Counseling and Implications
Genetic counseling is highly recommended before and after undergoing genetic testing. This counseling session helps individuals understand the results of the test and any potential implications for themselves and their family members. Our genetic counselors will provide guidance and support throughout the testing process.
At DNA Labs UAE, we are committed to providing accurate and reliable genetic testing services. If you suspect that you or your family member may have EVR, consider the FZD4 Gene Exudative vitreoretinopathy Genetic Test. Early detection and appropriate management can make a significant difference in preserving vision and improving quality of life.

Test Details | Exudative vitreoretinopathy (EVR) is a rare genetic disorder that affects the retina and can lead to vision loss or blindness. The FZD4 gene is one of several genes that have been associated with EVR. NGS (next-generation sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic testing that uses advanced technology to analyze multiple genes at once. This can be helpful in diagnosing genetic disorders like EVR, which can be caused by mutations in multiple genes. A FZD4 gene NGS genetic test specifically looks for mutations in the FZD4 gene that may be causing EVR. This can help doctors make a more accurate diagnosis and provide appropriate treatment and management for the condition. It is important to note that genetic testing is not always necessary or recommended for everyone with EVR. It is typically only recommended for individuals with a family history of the condition or those who have symptoms that suggest a genetic cause. Genetic counseling is also recommended before and after genetic testing to help individuals understand the results and any potential implications for themselves and their family members. |
