Inclusion Criteria:
* Male or females between 8 and 50 years of age at the time of signing theinformed consent form.
* Willing to adhere to protocol as evidenced by written informed consent orparental permission and subject assent.
* Clinical confirmed diagnosis of Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) andmolecular diagnosis of LCA due to RPE65 mutations.
* Ability to perform tests of visual and retinal function.
* Visual acuity of ≤ 20/160 or visual field less than 20 degrees in the eye to beinjected.
* Acceptable hematology, clinical chemistry, and urine laboratory parameters.
Exclusion Criteria:
* OCT examination determined that the outer nuclear layer was not visible inthe planned injection area (Bleb) in the study eye.
* Presence of epiretinal membrane by OCT.
* Complicating systemic diseases or clinically significant abnormal baselinelaboratory values.
* Complicating systemic diseases would include those in which the diseaseitself, or the treatment for the disease, can alter ocular function.
* Prior ocular surgery within six months.
* Prior gene therapy or oligonucleotide therapy treatments.
* Any other condition that would not allow the potential subject to completefollow-up examinations during the study and would, in the opinion of theinvestigator, make the potential subject unsuitable for the study.
