The few actual options for seeing. Most eyes of creatures are exactly the same despite claims of endless evolution going on . I read there are just a few types of eyes.
When you include the full range of sensing organs, that is completely incorrect.
If evolution was true then eye diversity and diversity of complexity would be the rule.
Diversity is the rule.
if there is a single blueprint from a single thinking mind then all eyes are the same equation with a few differences.
Your trouble here is that you are trying to narrow it down to fully formed eyes. There is a wide variety of sensing organs leading to fully formed eyes, and several different types of fully formed eyes.
If the eye has been evolving like crazy in all biology then fossils should be crawling with these intermediate stages.
if fossils can't show such detail then there is no fossil evidence for eye evolution.
Who needs fossils?
All the diversity you would ever want is found in living organisms today.
All you have to do is open your eyes!
But it seems you are deliberately blinding yourself because of your belief in ancient tribal myths. There's a couple of billion years of good productive evolution gone to waste.

Religious belief does not constitute scientific evidence, nor does it convey scientific knowledge.
