Did Evolution Really Build the Human Eye?
Description
The human eye is often cited as a triumph of Darwinian evolution, but Charles Darwin himself admitted that explaining its origin by natural selection seemed “absurd in the highest possible degree.” This video examines whether modern evolutionary explanations actually solve the problem Darwin raised. Looking at fossil evidence, the Cambrian explosion, trilobite eyes, and claims about “backwards-wired” retinas, the discussion explores whether the eye evolved through small gradual steps or appeared fully formed in the fossil record. Drawing on modern research into retinal structure, metabolic requirements, and light-guiding Müller cells, the video challenges the claim that the human eye is a flawed product of unguided evolution and asks whether its design points to something more.
Speaker Dr. Jonathan Wells.
