Carlene Knight would love to do things that most people take for granted, such as read books, drive a car, ride a bike, gaze at animals in a zoo and watch movies. She also longs to see expressions on people s faces. To be able to see my granddaughter especially my granddaughter s face, said Knight, 54, who lives outside Portland, Ore. It would be huge.

Michael Kalberer yearns to be able to read a computer screen so he could get back to work as a social worker. He also hopes to one day watch his nieces and nephews play soccer instead of just listening to them, and move around in the world without help. But that s not all.
Gene-editing CRISPR tool is used INSIDE four blind patients bodies in a world-first attempt to correct their vision without transferring DNA to the lab
Carlene Knight and Michael Kalberer were both born with a rare genetic eye disorder called Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA)
Patients with LCA have genetic mutations that cause rods and cones, cells that detect light in the retina, to not function properly and that lead to vision loss
Knight, 54, from Portland, Oregon, and Kalberer, 43, from Long Island, New York, have volunteered for a gene-editing study using CRISPR technology
Traditionally, cells with mutations are removed from the body, the defective genes are edited out, and then the cells are inserted back in
