Find Clarity About Albinism in Your Family
When albinism runs in your family, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. You deserve clear answers and professional guidance to understand your genetic heritage. Our OCA2 Gene Albinism Oculocutaneous Type 2 NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the definitive clarity you need, backed by advanced technology and compassionate care.
Understanding the OCA2 Albinism Genetic Test
The OCA2 gene plays a crucial role in producing melanin, the pigment that gives colour to your skin, hair, and eyes. When this gene has specific mutations, it can lead to oculocutaneous albinism type 2 – a condition affecting pigmentation and vision. Our Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines your OCA2 gene with exceptional precision, identifying even the smallest genetic variations that could impact your health.
This isn’t just a test – it’s a comprehensive health assessment that includes professional genetic counselling to help you understand what your results mean for you and your family.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your family members experience:
- Family history of albinism or reduced pigmentation
- Unexplained vision problems or light sensitivity
- Concerns about passing genetic conditions to children
- Planning for pregnancy with family history of albinism
- Diagnostic confirmation for suspected albinism cases
Many South African families carry genetic variations without knowing it. Early detection through genetic testing can provide valuable information for managing health and making informed family planning decisions.

Getting tested for OCA2 albinism provides more than just answers – it offers peace of mind and empowerment:
- Early Intervention: Identify genetic risks before symptoms develop
