Test Details
The OPTN gene is associated with glaucoma, specifically open-angle type 1E. This type of glaucoma is characterized by a gradual buildup of pressure within the eye, which can damage the optic nerve and lead to vision loss if left untreated. NGS (next-generation sequencing) genetic testing can be used to analyze the OPTN gene for mutations or variations that may increase the risk of developing open-angle glaucoma. This type of testing can provide valuable information for individuals with a family history of glaucoma or those who are at increased risk due to other factors such as age or ethnicity. NGS genetic testing for the OPTN gene can help identify individuals who may benefit from early detection and treatment of glaucoma, as well as those who may be at increased risk for the condition and could benefit from preventative measures such as regular eye exams and lifestyle changes.
