Visigen near me in Vijayawada

Visigen test is a screening test based on your genetic makeup that helps to estimate your genetic risk of developing Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a vision-related disorder. It's a polygenic risk score (PRS) screening. Knowing the genetic risk for developing AMD would be a beneficial step in its early detection. This test can help identify disease progression and genetic risk for involvement of the second eye in individuals who are diagnosed with AMD in one eye. This test helps identify if you are at high, moderate, or average genetic risk of developing AMD. You can take this test if you have a family history of AMD, or if you are above 18 years of age with or without a family history of AMD. Certain lifestyle modifications and clinical interventions may help manage AMD.
