But kidding aside, that's called Bilateral symmetry. 99% of organisms are bilaterally symmetric

So Bilateral symmetry ensures the eyes are spaced apart just perfectly, my!
“said mutations are 100% random”
False ”
Nope, you are false, mutations are 100% random. This is your crutch to lie about this.
NS can do absolutely nothing in the way of developing new traits because mutations are what causes new traits to emerge.
Your repeated lies to this not helping your cause
Bilateral symmetry doesn't ensure equal spacing, but it makes it much more likely because a mutation in one gene can affect both sides of an organism with bilateral symmetry (which is most animals visible to the naked eye).
Mutations aren't magic. They are constrained by the laws of biochemistry, and therefore CANNOT be 100% random. Like most random events, they are constrained by their 'possibility space'. Like a die with 100 sides could only give '100% random results' as long as those results aren't lower than 1 or higher than 100. It's not going to give a random result of 'sky' unless 'sky' is printed on one of the sides.
Natural selection is primarily a conservative 'force', it eliminates what is detrimental to an organism reproducing, so most of the time it's acting to keep a species the way it already is. Without natural selection species would become unrecognizable as variations with adverse survival value would be retained in the species instead of eliminated. Mutations happen on the individual level, a novel trait cannot emerge at the species level unless it is not selected against by natural selection. Mutations supply individual variations, natural selection (or possibly a population bottleneck like the founder effect) determines whether a new genetic variation spreads to the species level.
