There's nothing irreducibly complex about an eye-spot either. "Every stage" of an eyes function does not function better than the last. Some eyes which would seem -to us- to be less complicated than our own are worlds better for the task at hand than ours would be.

(I ask so that you can't then turn around and ask for an intermediary between our eyes and the intemediary add infinitum -which is obviously where this is headed...since so many fucking examples were given in every link I just gave you.)
Here's a picture of the main parts of an eye: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-VkKryzGZM1c/UB...+eye+1.jpg
The prior stage should have a change in only one of the parts, and the eye should still function. If more than one part changes, we have an evolutionary leap and the probability shrinks by thousandths. There should be points along the path where vital parts such as the retina, lens and iris can safely mutate and leave the eye still operative, lessening the quality by just a fraction.
