Inclusion Criteria

  • Male or females between 6 and 50 years of age at the time of signing the informed consent form. - Willing to adhere to protocol as evidenced by written informed consent or parental permission and subject assent. - Clinical confirmed diagnosis of Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) and molecular diagnosis of LCA due to RPE65 mutations. - Ability to perform tests of visual and retinal function. - Visual acuity of ≤ 20/80 or visual field less than 20 degrees in the eye to be injected. - Acceptable hematology, clinical chemistry, and urine laboratory parameters.
