There IS such a thing as too much input. In Viet Nam, F-4 pilots turned off alarms when too many events were occurring and chose to deal with things by the seat of the pants. It's called sensory overload.

And I'll tell you that optical designs are always a trade-off for color correction, field of view, aberration and a variety of other factors. The eyeballs you have are pretty dang good by any standard for all that they do.

It's interesting that intelligence is linked to nearsightedness. Not 100% but you figure the tool makers need to have their depth of field to be adjusted. It is also interesting that nearsightedness is exacerbated by reading and other close up work. This is called adaptive optics.
