Invitae Inherited Retinal Disorders Panel

This program offers U.S. clinicians access to comprehensive genetic testing for patients with suspected inherited retinal diseases, including RP, CRD, LCA, Stargardt disease, and other IRDs. Testing is also appropriate for asymptomatic individuals with a family history of IRD or a known pathogenic variant in a relevant gene, supporting diagnosis, risk assessment, and patient management.

Early-Onset Bilateral Cataracts Sequencing Panel

This program provides no-cost access to a 66-gene panel for U.S. patients aged 18 months to 35 years with current or historical idiopathic bilateral cataracts. The test evaluates key cataract, connexin, crystallin, developmental, and metabolic genes to support diagnosis and management, including early detection of CTX. Providers assess eligibility and oversee ordering, specimen collection, and result interpretation.

PBD-ZSD Sequencing Panel

This program provides no-cost access to genetic testing for U.S. patients with confirmed or suspected PBD-ZSD. The panel evaluates core PEX genes associated with peroxisome biogenesis disorders and supports diagnosis, management, and assessment of disease severity. Providers assess eligibility, coordinate specimen collection and shipping, and review both genetic and reflex biochemical results.
