Molecular assay reagents intended to identify gene variants associated with vitelliform macular dystrophy, a form of macular dystrophy typically characterized by the accumulation of lipofuscin in cells underlying the macula, which leads to progressive central vision loss. Genetic variants at multiple loci have been associated with vitelliform macular dystrophy. These reagents are intended to detect various types of genetic changes (e.g., deletions, duplications, insertions, single nucleotide polymorphisms) in multiple vitelliform macular dystrophy-associated loci simultaneously.
