    Remember, your only job as far as natural selection is concerned is to have offspring and have them survive long enough to repeat the cycle. Old people with bad eyesight just have to be able to keep the kids and grandkids alive.

      Bad eyesight could have a positive effect on generating offspring because you can’t tell how ugly your partner is. Or that about 30% of the time you aren’t having sex with your partner but someone else with poor eyesight instead.
