Overview
The POC1B gene test detects pathogenic variants causing cone-rod dystrophy type 20, an inherited retinal disorder characterised by progressive loss of cone and rod photoreceptors. This NGS‑based assay helps confirm clinical diagnosis, guide ophthalmologic management, and inform family planning decisions.
يكشف هذا التحليل عن الطفرات الممرضة في جين POC1B المسببة للضمور المخروطي القضيبي من النوع 20، لتمكين الأطباء من تأكيد التشخيص وتوجيه العلاج الوراثي.
| Feature | Our Test (NGS) | Closest Alternative (Panel/Sanger) |
|---|---|---|
| Precision | Single‑gene deep coverage, including intronic boundaries | May miss non‑coding variants or require reflex testing |
| Method | Next Generation Sequencing with full bioinformatics analysis | Targeted panels with limited POC1B coverage |
| Turnaround | 3 to 4 weeks | Often 6–8 weeks due to batching |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
“This genetic test requires careful clinical correlation with comprehensive ophthalmic examinations, including electroretinography. A positive result does not always predict the exact severity or progression of vision loss, and genetic counselling is essential before and after testing to interpret the findings in the context of your family history.”
— Dr. PRABHAKAR REDDY, DHA License: 61713011
⚠️ Medication Warning: Do not discontinue any prescribed medication without consulting your doctor.
Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Red Flags
- Patients with complex chromosomal rearrangements may require extended cytogenetic workup; this test alone may be insufficient.
- Not intended for standalone prenatal diagnosis without dedicated genetic counselling and informed consent.
- Seek immediate ophthalmic emergency care if you experience sudden vision loss, new‑onset flashes or floaters, or severe eye pain.
If you encounter any of these symptoms, contact your ophthalmologist or visit the nearest emergency department without delay.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What does the POC1B genetic test diagnose?
ماذا يُشخّص تحليل جين POC1B؟
This test identifies mutations in the POC1B gene linked to cone-rod dystrophy type 20, causing progressive vision loss. It aids in confirming a clinical suspicion of the disease, assessing inheritance pattern, and guiding personalised surveillance. A genetic counsellor will explain your result and its implications for family members.
2. How is the DNA sample collected for the test?
كيف يتم جمع عينة الحمض النووي للتحليل؟
A simple blood draw or a FTA card drop is collected by a certified phlebotomist at home or clinic. Our VIP mobile service ensures a painless, sterile collection under cold-chain conditions. No special fasting is required. The sample is immediately transferred to our ISO‑certified laboratory for processing.
3. When will I receive my results and what support is provided?
متى سأحصل على النتائج وما هو الدعم المقدم؟
Results are available in 3 to 4 weeks, followed by a telephonic clinical consultation with our genetic counselor. The report includes variant interpretation according to ACMG 2026 guidelines. We also coordinate with your treating ophthalmologist to integrate the findings into your care plan.
