Protect Your Vision from Hereditary Glaucoma
If glaucoma runs in your family, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Every eye check-up brings anxiety, wondering if this will be the time you receive difficult news. Our CYP1B1 Gene Glaucoma Primary Type 3A NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the answers you need to take proactive control of your eye health. Early detection through genetic testing can mean the difference between preserving your vision and facing preventable vision loss.
Understanding Your CYP1B1 Glaucoma Genetic Test
This specialised test examines the CYP1B1 gene, which plays a crucial role in eye development and fluid drainage. When mutations occur in this gene, it can lead to Primary Congenital Glaucoma Type 3A – a serious condition that affects eye pressure and can cause permanent vision damage if not detected early. Our advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology provides the most accurate analysis available, giving you reliable results you can trust for making important health decisions.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Family history of congenital or early-onset glaucoma
- Unexplained vision changes in childhood
- Increased sensitivity to light in young family members
- Excessive tearing in infants or children
- Cloudy or enlarged corneas in family members
- Planning pregnancy with family glaucoma history
If glaucoma has affected multiple generations in your family, genetic testing can provide clarity about your risk and help guide appropriate monitoring and prevention strategies.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Vision
Knowing your genetic risk for CYP1B1-related glaucoma empowers you to:
- Start early monitoring and preventive treatments
- Reduce anxiety through clear understanding of your risk
- Make informed family planning decisions
- Prevent irreversible vision damage through timely intervention
- Create personalised eye care plans with your ophthalmologist
- Potentially save on future medical costs through early prevention
Early detection through genetic testing can preserve your quality of life and maintain your independence by protecting your precious eyesight.
