Not necessarily, it means you have white skin, pink eyes and nearly white hair, and is found in animals and birds as well. It depends on whether there are underlying problems, with blood etc.Usually albinos have a normal life otherwise
Albinism is a congenital disorder.
Albinism is a genetic disorder in which pigment in the skin and/or eyes is absent or reduced. It is not a movement or religion (-ism).
Yes. If either parent is a carrier of the gene that causes albinism then their child becomes a carrier as well. It is only when both parents have the gene for albinism that the child is born with this disorder.
This could be deadly if it's never been treated. This is life treatening.
yes it is. It affects chromosome 11.
NOAH, man.
no albinism is a genetic disorders that changes an offsprings physical appearance from its original parents. it may also bring out the offsprings recessive traits. its also a cause of mental retardation
hfi is a underrecognised yet preventable life condition,which is treatening. It is an autosomal recessive disorder with subnormal activity of aldolase B in the liver, kidney and small bowel. if you eat clean and heathy and always wash your hands,i guess you'll be free of it.
Albinism is a rare disorder found in fewer than five people per 100,000 in the United States and Europe. Other parts of the world have a much higher rate; for example, albinism is found in about 20 out of every 100,000 people in southern Nigeria.
Albinism is not a disease. People with albinism have little or no pigment in their eyes, skin, or hair. They have inherited altered genes that do not make the usual amounts of pigmment called melanin. Albinism affects people from all races. Most children with albinism are born to parents who have normal hair and eye color for their ethnic backrounds. There are different types of albinism, but all forms are associated with vision problems.
Cure of your skin pigmentation disorder depends on the type of skin disorder you have developed. Skin pigmentation disorders include hypo-pigmentation, albinism, vitiligo, Hyper-pigmentation, Lichen Simplex Chronicus, Melasma, Birthmarks, Port-wine Stains.You can differentiate your skin pigmentation disorder by visiting the following links: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypopigmentationhttp://www.antivitiligo.com/vitiligo/albinism-and-vitiligo.html
As of now, albinism cannot be cured. This is because albinism is a hereditary disorder and the cause lies at the genetic level. To change the genetic code of each and every cell of the body is an impossible task. That is why, there is no cure for albinism yet but hopefully in the near future, scientists may be able to control the genetic make-up of an individual.
