 | | Although surgery is possible on the ocular muscles, effectively simulating (to a limited degree) the improvements in the albino's vision that often come with age, the gain is generally thought to be out-weighed by the trauma. |  | | The largest problem human albinos face is social, as the condition usually is a source of torment during adolescent years. |  | | This condition is known to affect mammals, fish, birds, reptiles, and amphibians. |

 | | But W. Haacke has described a single albino rat, in which he states that the hairs of the shoulder and mid-dorsal regions were of a different texture from those of the rest of the body. |  | | Thus these albinoes exhibit a pattern of pink skin similar in form with the black pattern of the piebald rat. |  | | Moreover, some of the albinoes possess these particular " pattern " hairs all over the body and obviously such individuals are carrying the self pattern. |

 | | There are also various degrees of patchy albinism where only part of the body is affected. |  | | Piebaldism occurs when albinism only affects certain areas of skin; the unpigmented patches are due to localised mutations in skin cells during embryo development. |  | | Some forms of albino are temperature dependent, for example the Siamese cat has a form of albinism where pigmentation develops on cooler areas of the body (the head, tail and legs) but is inhibited on the warmer parts of the body. |
