For those with a scientific background, here are several references and abstracts about the

epithelium of cats with Chediak-Higashi syndrome. Exp Eye Res. 1985 Sep;41(3):305-11.
"Chediak-Higashi syndrome is a genetic disorder characterized by greatly enlarged
cytoplasmic granules, including lysosomes and melanosomes. Eyes of humans and animals
with Chediak-Higashi syndrome are hypopigmented to various degrees. Intraocular melanin
granules vary in size, with some being massively enlarged. Electron microscopic examination
of retinal pigmented epithelium of kittens with Chediak-Higashi syndrome disclosed a
number of abnormalities of premelanosomes and melanosomes. Few premelanosomes were
present. Most of the melanin granules were giant sized, but their structures varied. Some of
