A person who is born without eyes or with severely underdeveloped eyes; an individual with the condition of anophthalmia.
From Greek 'an-' (without) + 'ophthalmos' (eye) + '-os' (masculine noun ending). Medical term for affected individuals, though often considered outdated in modern medicine.
Historical accounts of anophthalmos individuals show remarkable adaptation—blind people throughout history developed compensatory spatial awareness so acute that some scholars argue blindness activates latent brain regions sighted people never develop.
