LIM2 Gene Cataract cortical pulverulent late-onset Genetic Test
Welcome to DNA Labs UAE, where we offer the LIM2 Gene Cataract cortical pulverulent late-onset Genetic Test. This test helps diagnose individuals with cortical pulverulent cataract, a type of cataract characterized by small, white opacities in the lens of the eye.
Test Details
The LIM2 gene is associated with cortical pulverulent cataract. This condition can cause blurred vision and difficulty seeing in low light conditions. It is typically diagnosed in individuals over the age of 40 and is often inherited in an autosomal dominant manner.
Test Components
- Price: 4400.0 AED
- Sample Condition: Blood or Extracted DNA or One drop Blood on FTA Card
- Report Delivery: 3 to 4 Weeks
- Method: NGS Technology
- Test Type: Ophthalmology Disorders
- Doctor: Ophthalmologist
- Test Department: Genetics
Pre Test Information
Before undergoing the LIM2 Gene Cataract cortical pulverulent late-onset 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 condition.
Benefits of the Test
NGS genetic testing can identify mutations in the LIM2 gene, confirming a diagnosis of cortical pulverulent cataract. This information is valuable for genetic counseling and family planning, as it provides insight into the inheritance pattern of the condition.

Test Details | The LIM2 gene is associated with a type of cataract known as cortical pulverulent cataract. This type of cataract is characterized by the presence of small, white opacities in the lens of the eye, which can cause blurred vision and difficulty seeing in low light conditions. Late-onset cortical pulverulent cataract is typically diagnosed in individuals over the age of 40 and is often inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, meaning that a mutation in one copy of the LIM2 gene is sufficient to cause the condition. NGS genetic testing can be used to identify mutations in the LIM2 gene, which can help confirm a diagnosis of cortical pulverulent cataract and provide information about the inheritance pattern of the condition. This information can be useful for genetic counseling and family planning. |
