  • Publication number: 20200339641
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method of restoring or enhancing visual function in an individual, the method comprising administering to the individual a nucleic acid comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding one or more of a medium wavelength cone opsin (MW-opsin), a long wavelength cone opsin (LW-opsin), and a short wavelength cone opsin (SW-opsin). One or more of the MW-opsin, LW-opsin, and SW-opsin is expressed in a retinal cell in the individual, thereby restoring or enhancing visual function.
