a white cloudy eye is a symptom, often called cloudy eye disease, even though it is a symptom not a disease in itself.

the broken line could be neon tetra disease or false neon tetra disease.
I suggest issolating the fish in question and observing him.
If you can not issolate him, then euthinise him as NTD is highly contagious and untreatable.

Take a look here to see if anything matches up, i agree with wolf i would issolate the fish and i would try a bacteria med to make sure it isn't false ntd as thats called saddleback columnaris.
