Yes, they have normal lifespans and die the same way any other without albinism dies.
The same goes for people who have albinism. With the exception of a tiny percentage of people with albinism who also have HPS Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome
The most common form of albinism occurs in 1 / 17,000 of the population. These people have the same life span as anyone else who doesn't have albinism.
Across the globe, the incidence of HPS is somewhere between 1 in 500,000 to 1 in a 1,000,000
"In HPS type 1 and type 4 pulmonary fibrosis is a common problem. Pulmonary fibrosis is the scarring of the lungs which prevents them from being able to expand and contract during inhalation and exhalation. It is a restrictive lung disease. In HPS, the typical age of onset of symptoms occurs in the mid 30s, although some cases have been reported in individuals in their early 20s. Without treatment death typically occurs between 45 and 55. Several treatments are being investigated at the National Institutes of Health"

Are there any animals not affected by albino-ism?
Albino animals are definitely affected by their genetic condition, and depending on the environment, the condition can be beneficial or harmful. An albino in a polar environment such as Alaska or North Canada can benefit from blending into the snowy landscape. An albino animal in the desert, however, will probably die quicker, being unable to blend into its surroundings.
