Is albinism dominant

First of all: albinism is a family hereditary disease, which is autosomal recessive inheritance and often occurs in the population of close relatives.

Secondly: genetic map of albinism: both parents of the patients carry albinism gene, and they do not get disease. If both the husband and wife pass on the pathogenic gene to their children, the children will get sick. Ocular albinism is an X-linked recessive inheritance, which is caused by the albinism gene carried by the mother and passed on to the son. If passed on to the daughter, there will be no symptoms.

Finally: the current drug treatment is ineffective, only through physical methods, to minimize the damage of ultraviolet radiation to the eyes and skin. Can also use photosensitive drugs, hormones and other treatment to weaken or even disappear leukoplakia. In addition, we need to pay attention to the psychological problems of patients with albinism.
