What's the difference between albinism and albinotic?
Albinism
Definition:
(n.) The state or condition of being an albino: abinoism; leucopathy.

Albinotic
Definition:
(a.) Affected with albinism.
Example Sentences:

(5) No phenol oxidase activity was detected in the ocular structures of the albinotic rats.
(6) As compared to the control series, the phenotypic segregation ratios in the adult F(2) generation after irradiation was changed significantly in favour of wild-type and blue fish, whereas the proportion of albinotic, blond and "white" (= blond + blue) guppies was lowered.
(7) We studied the albinotic characteristics in 13 members of a white family (age range, 2 to 73 years), which were graded according to severity and were correlated with visual acuity.

(10) It remains doubtful that the misdirection is an explanation for the nystagmus in albinotic humans.
(11) The results indicate that, although VA in albinos is limited ultimately by the presence of foveal hypoplasia, other components of the typical albinotic syndrome (such as the accompanying nystagmus) can add to the acuity reduction and should, therefore, be treated.
(12) The esophageal vascularization of adult male and female albinotic Guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus) is studied by means of light microscopically evaluated serial sections and by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of vascular corrosion casts.
(13) Examinations of the fundus oculi in red-free polarized light, carried out in 19 patients (12 with albinism and 7 with the albinotic type of the fundus oculi) have revealed for the first time a peculiar ring-like figure.
