Evolution via natural selection is hugely case specific and doesn't have a timeline.  In the absence of beneficial mutation, evolution in deer vision (to use the example cited) won't ever happen, not even in a thousand million generations.  Conversely, species for fruit fly have been known to evolve new genetic traits in a matter of weeks.
