I've seen this thought brought up a few times and for some reason there's never further discussion. The albino BP eyesight line of thought, when it comes to striking, is made to be more than it should be. ALL ball pythons have poor eyesight in relation to their other senses. Their eyes help them to navigate their surroundings, but when it comes to hunting their heat pits play a far more important role. Since they primarily emerge from their burrows at night to hunt for their prey, they essentially "see" prey with their heat pits rather than their eyes (both senses are processed in the same part of their brains).Originally Posted by Zincubus
