Overview
- The unit provides genetic counselling.
- Facilities: Ophthalmic Genetic clinic, PCR lab and Cytogenetic lab.
- Running Techniques: DNA Extraction, Polymerase Chain Reaction,
Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP), Real time PCR.
Vision
The unit aims to translate genomic medicine into precision ophthalmic care for
patients with inherited eye disorders.
Mission
Our mission is to diagnose, study the inherited and rare eye diseases. It bridges the
gap between genomics and clinical care.
