The Kallam Anji Reddy Molecular Genetics Laboratory conducts research leading to the understanding of underlying molecular mechanisms in various inherited eye disorders. This laboratory has facilities for advanced research in molecular genetics and molecular biology and is equipped with thermal cyclers, gel documentation units, spectrophotometer, electrophoresis equipment, dHPLC and an automated DNA sequencer.

The primary focus lies in identifying and characterizing the genes involved in ocular disorders, understanding their mutation spectrum, screening SNPs that could be potential risk factors for the disease condition and generating haplotypes to understand the origin, evolution and differentiation of the mutations

The research has led to several conference presentations and publications.
