Ophthalmic Genetic Counselling
Ophthalmic genetic counselling focuses on understanding inherited eye conditions that can affect adults. It involves meeting with a genetic counselor who helps you explore your family history, assess your risk of eye diseases, and discuss genetic testing options. The counselor provides information about how genes impact eye health, potential treatments, and the implications for family members. The goal is to empower you with knowledge to make informed decisions about your health and that of your family while offering support throughout the process.
