In my school there was a Finn-swede who looked almost exactly like this, but she wasn't albino - Her eyes were quite a remarkable shade of blue though.

People posted pics, but no one really said anything about albinos. I was at my parents church the other day and there are two albino females. One is a little "black" girl. She has very negroid features, but her skin and hair is a lighter color than the two blonde girls she was standing with. Her eyes are also a pale blue (maybe?). Then, there is a Europid Albino girl who is aged maybe in her teens. Her skin and hair is white white. She was dressed in all white and her skin and hair blended in with her dress. Her eyes are the pinkish-red color with some blue. I have heard though that Albinos who have the pink-red eyes often wear blue contacts. I have seen probably about 4 Albinos in my lifetime. The other two in the past were in different states and were both males. I have never seen two in the same place before.

i dont understand this??? can you please elaborate?

cause i have heard in some site that people with albinism have grey blue eyes and the pinkish color is because of the blood vessels on the eye and sometimes the eyes have a mauve color ( a purplish hue blue+red)

can u please shed light on this matter...

thanks
