No Vitiligo is not related to Albinism.

  • Albinism is of two types
  1. the whole body including the eyes, the retina, the skin and the hair, all melanin containing areas of the body are involved
  2. affects the eyes only
  • Albinism is present at birth while Vitiligo is not.
  • Albinism is a stable disorder which does not spread or improve while Vitiligo can progress or improve on its own
