Feasibility and Efficacy of Same-Day, In-Office Genetic Testing for Inherited Retinal Diseases.

In-office genetic testing is a novel practice pattern that provides a more consistent and accessible method for IRD genetic diagnosis. Compared with an out-of-office referral for genetic testing, in-office genetic testing offers a similar rate of causative gene mutation identification but a greatly higher rate of test completion, therefore potentially offering a much higher yield for genetic diagnosis of IRDs.
