👉 The term "cephalorhachidian" refers to a type of cataract, which is characterized by the presence of blood vessels in the eye's lens. This condition can result from an injury or infection to the lens, leading to a decrease in its ability to focus light and form clear vision. Cephalorhachidian cataracts are usually associated with age-related macular degeneration (AMD), which is a progressive loss of vision that affects the central nervous system.
