No, it's only for genetic problems. Deaf and dumb, blindness can't detect during pregnancy

@616dad538054f30013c5cc08 does a screen positive double marker test result indicate or make higher the risk of having a baby with mental or physical abnormality if amniocentesis result is normal or if amniocentesis result tells that the baby will not have chromosomonal disease?

Can these problems be detected before birth or not?

By amniocentesis they will do the fetal karyotyping and only chromosomal problem can be detected .<br> As you said other problems may not be detected.
