Find Clarity About Albinism in Your Family
When albinism runs in your family, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. You deserve definitive answers and the peace of mind that comes from understanding your genetic makeup. Our TYR Gene Albinism Oculocutaneous Type 1B test provides the clarity you need to make informed decisions about your health and family planning.
Understanding Your TYR Gene Albinism Test
This specialised genetic test examines the TYR gene, which plays a crucial role in producing melanin – the pigment that gives colour to your skin, hair, and eyes. When mutations occur in this gene, it can lead to oculocutaneous albinism type 1B, affecting both vision and pigmentation. Our advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology provides the most accurate detection available, giving you reliable results you can trust.
Who Should Consider This Test?
- Individuals with family history of albinism
- Couples planning pregnancy where albinism is a concern
- Parents of children showing signs of reduced pigmentation
- Individuals experiencing vision problems associated with albinism
- Anyone seeking clarity about their genetic risk for albinism
If you’ve noticed unusually light skin, hair, or eye colour in your family, or if vision challenges seem to run in your lineage, this test can provide the answers you need.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Family’s Health
Understanding your genetic status empowers you to make proactive health decisions. Early detection allows for proper vision care, sun protection planning, and informed family planning choices. Many families find tremendous relief in having concrete answers rather than living with uncertainty. The peace of mind that comes from knowing your genetic status is invaluable for planning your family’s future.
Understanding Your Results with Compassion
We understand that waiting for genetic results can be anxiety-provoking. That’s why we include professional genetic counselling as part of your testing process. Our specialists will help you understand what your results mean for you and your family, whether they show the presence of TYR gene mutations or provide reassuring clarity. You’ll never be left to interpret complex genetic information alone.
