Treatment

Sadly there is no cure for albinism, however, there are ways to make the symptoms less severe.

~Visual aids recommended by the optometrist
~Eye muscle surgery, however this may not improve visibility, it will only stop the eyes from moving as much
~Wearing sunscreen is vital for albinos to prevent skin cancer or sunburn
