What this Trial Is About

Albinism is a genetic condition characterized by low melanin production, leading to features such as fair skin, white hair, and eye issues including reduced visual acuity, photophobia, and nystagmus. This research focuses on understanding the complaints of people with albinism, especially about glare, and explores interest in treatments that target glare without necessarily improving vision. Participants will complete an online self-questionnaire consisting of 18 questions. The questionnaire link will be emailed to those who agree to participate. This observational study aims to gather patient perspectives on emerging treatments addressing specific symptoms like glare. During the study, patients' responses to the questionnaire will be collected and analyzed to determine their interest in potential treatments for glare. The primary outcome is whether patients with albinism would be interested in a treatment that improves glare without affecting visual acuity. Participation involves completing the questionnaire once, with no additional interventions or follow-up visits planned.
