If u check on the computer it may be that your hamster is dying. when a hamsters doent do much life run or eat it may be that its too old. Yes hamsters are blind but not that kind of blind that u cant see its the color blind part that hamsters can only see in black and white.

Hamsters have very bad eyesight. Dwarfs can't see more than a few inches in front of them. Yet they get along very well.
Chances are your hamster is just more unique than most others. Give him an extra treat and a little pet on his back.
Unless, of course, his eyes weren't always that color. If his eye was a pale blue or milky white, I'd be worried. A dark color is generally very normal.

For God's sake!!! nothing in this world can be half albino and half normal. you ARE albino or you are NOT albino, that's all. Check for dominant and recessive alleles, please. About your hamster.. he is totally normal, as blind as the rest of hamsters: most of people don`t know that there are tons of breeds of hamsters and a few of them have this special feature of different colored eyes. Most of hamsters have bad sight, but their sense of smell is great and their memory pretty good,that's why they get through their lives without hitting themselves to the walls.... Totally agree with Empy: treat him as a miracle (he is one). Hugs from his pal, Descartes, my hamster ;)

Probably just has two different colored eyes, like people sometimes do. Lots of animals have red eyes (look up pictures of albino pets on google)

if he looks like he has trouble walking and is bumping into things then he might be blind but different eye colors dont really mean anything

Maybe it is,maybe it isn't.It might not, because sometimes animals have 2 different colored eyes.Either that or it's blind.Just to make sure you should ask a vet.
