The eye, it would seem, is poorly designed.

Quote:The most obvious design flaw of the retina is that the cellular layers are backwards. Light has to travel through multiple layers in order to get to the rods and cones that act as the photo-receptors. There is no functional reason for this arrangement – it is purely quirky and contingent.

not to mention the naturally occurring "blind spot" due to our evolution. The Octopus, on the other hand which evolved its eye independently in the same permanent environment, has no such flaw.
No God, No fear.
