Summary

This study is testing an experimental gene therapy called VGR-R01 for people with Bietti Crystalline Dystrophy, a rare genetic disease that causes progressive vision loss. The trial will enroll 45 adults to see if a one-time injection into the eye can slow or stop the decline in eyesight compared to a control group. The main goal is to measure changes in visual clarity and assess the treatment's safety.
