Tests included in the panel:

  • Collie Eye Anomaly (CEA) DNA TestCEANHEJ1

    Collie Eye Anomaly (CEA), also known as Choroidal Hypoplasia, is an inherited eye condition caused by a variant associated with the NHEJ1 gene. It affects the development of the eye and can range from no obvious vision problems to more serious changes that may lead to partial or complete blindness. CEA is inherited as an autosomal recessive condition, meaning a dog must inherit two copies of the associated variant to be genetically affected.

    Inheritance: autosomal recessive

How it's inherited

Recessive

What your result means

Clear (N/N): no copies; not expected to develop CEA, nor pass it on.

Carrier (N/CEA): one copy. Healthy, but can pass it on. Breeding two carriers risks affected puppies.

Affected (CEA/CEA): two copies; expected to develop CEA. Discuss with your vet.
