The “Nx Gen Sequencing Cataract Test” is a cutting-edge diagnostic tool available at DNA Labs UAE, designed to provide comprehensive insights into the genetic predisposition of individuals to cataracts. Utilizing Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, this test examines a person’s DNA to identify specific genetic variations that could indicate a higher risk of developing cataracts. Cataracts are a leading cause of vision impairment and blindness worldwide, characterized by the clouding of the eye’s natural lens. Early detection through genetic testing can empower individuals with valuable information to take proactive steps in monitoring and managing their eye health. The test is priced at 5730 AED, reflecting the advanced technology and the detailed analysis provided. DNA Labs UAE, known for its state-of-the-art facilities and expert staff, ensures a reliable and efficient testing process, making it a valuable resource for those seeking to understand their genetic risk for cataracts.

Test Details

Cataract is a common eye disease that causes clouding of the lens, leading to vision impairment or loss. Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) is a powerful technology that can sequence large amounts of DNA or RNA in a short time and at a low cost. NGS can be used to identify genetic mutations or variations that may contribute to the development of cataract.

NGS-based cataract tests can analyze a panel of genes known to be associated with cataract, such as CRYAA, CRYAB, CRYBB1, CRYBB2, CRYGC, CRYGD, GJA3, GJA8, HSF4, and MAF. The test can detect single nucleotide variants (SNVs), small insertions or deletions (indels), and copy number variations (CNVs) in these genes.

NGS-based cataract tests can provide valuable information for diagnosis, prognosis, and personalized treatment of cataract. For example, if a patient has a pathogenic mutation in a cataract-associated gene, the doctor may recommend early screening and regular follow-up to monitor the progression of cataract. In some cases, genetic testing may also help identify family members who are at risk of developing cataract and provide genetic counseling.
