no i dont think so albino is just a name type of animal which has white fur and red eyes.
p.s. what i mean by "animal" is you can get many different animals with albino roots e.g guinea pigs, hamsters, lions, hedgehogs, humans (i think), squirrels, dolphins, bats...)
True, most of them aren't blind. In fact, there's a difference between the albino genes of mice, rabbits, guinea pigs and similar animals and the albino genes of, for example, dogs and cats which often are blind and deaf.

Your question intriqued me as I had a blind piggie way back in 1971...he got along fine with the help of his two brothers guiding him around ...especially when playing outside the cage on the livingroom floor.
