Argument with a friend. Is he:
1> Albino
2> Blind
3> or just vision impaired?

I think the whole family is.

According to this site (http://www.home.ch/~spaw1203/Music/winter_bio.html), it's 1 and 3:
Born cross-eyed and albino, Johnny Winter (John Dawson Winter III)...
His brother Edgar makes reference to being albino in a song, "White Man's Blues."
Do you win the argument?

I argued that he was cross-eyed but not blind. I have found one reference to him being legally blind, though. My friend says blind as in Doc Watson, which to me isn't the same (my name is Nit, and I pick). I say, cross-eyed, but vision impaired. We both said albino and then a third person (boring day at work) objected to that.
