The Gainesville Sun University of Florida Health ophthalmology researcher Dr. William W. Hauswirth, whose long and distinguished career includes developing and testing treatments for multiple forms of genetic blindness, is among the scientists being recognized for their pioneering work to eradicate vision loss. Hauswirth was among 13 scientists awarded The Sanford and Sue Greenberg Prize to End Blindness, which carries a total of $3 million in funding. Hauswirth’s achievements include a decades-long effort to bring sight to patients who have a genetic form of vision loss known as Leber congenital amaurosis type 2. His work with collaborators at the University of Pennsylvania culminated with federal approval of a gene therapy for the disease in late 2017.
