Allows for the simultaneous, automated, fast and accurate sequencing of all the coding regions (exons) of the human genome (approximately 20,000 genes, representing 1% of a human’s DNA) with an average coverage over 90x. Then, using bioinformatics programs, any genetic variants found in the genes that cause hereditary eye diseases are noted and analyzed. These regions contain 85% of the pathogenic mutations described as causing hereditary pathologies in humans.
