Visual Acuity after Retinal Gene Therapy for Choroideremia.
New England Journal of Medicine, 2016 In this study, the subfoveal injection of a gene-therapy vector carrying nonmutated CHM, the gene that, when mutated, causes a form of blindness called choroideremia, was followed by an improvement in visual acuity in two of six patients at 3.5 years ...
