What lifestyle adjustments does albinism usually require?
The reduced visual acuity associated with albinism may result in difficulty in school, such as the inability to read what is written on a chalkboard except when very close, and difficulty with ball sports. It may also result in the inability to drive, and place limitations on vocational choice. Student, parents, and teachers should work as a team to consider seating, lighting, optical aids, and social and emotional growth.
