SightScore is a saliva test that looks at millions of genetic variants in the patient’s genome to create a personalized polygenic risk score for glaucoma.

The focus in recent years has shifted to reducing the long-term burden of medical therapy, minimizing the risk of medication toxicity and persistent ocular surface disease.
