SightScore Glaucoma Genetic Risk Assessment

SightScore is a saliva-based test that analyses thousands of genetic variants in a patient’s DNA to create a personalised polygenic risk score for primary open angle glaucoma.

SightScore enables optometrists and ophthalmologists to triage patients according to their risk of glaucoma and glaucoma progression:

  • Family members: Identify which patients have inherited high genetic risk to inform eye examination and monitoring frequency decisions.
  • Glaucoma suspects/ocular hypertension: Identify patients at risk of conversion to glaucoma for monitoring and referral decisions.
  • Glaucoma cases: Identify patients at risk of more severe glaucoma and surgery.

SightScore is based on world-leading research and has been validated in large clinically relevant cohorts.1
