Vision of People with Albinism
Did you know that albinism impairs vision? The term "albinism" may conjure up images of fair complexion or light hair. However, if a person has ocular albinism, their eyes may appear and function differently, and they may need to wear special contacts or glasses. Also, that person's vision will not be fully lost, and it will not deteriorate over time. In reality, as youngsters get older, their eyesight may improve. International Albinism Awareness Day serves as a painful reminder of the difficulties that people with albinism encounter, as well as the necessity of recognizing and supporting their personal experiences.
