Given the prevelance of mutation in the human genome, shouldn't we have seen some major changes by now? Like eyes in the back of your head or something?There have been plenty of "major changes," though we have not been around to actually observe and document step-by-step what the evidence shows has indeed occurred over countless generations and a few billion years. And yes, mutations sometimes include severe deformities such as eyes growing in areas where they serve no real purpose--which is why if they did grow in the back of a person's head, that individual's genes likely would not spread throughout the population.
