The suns still set, and vision in the dark would still be important - on Earth, even animals that don't have a significant night-life still see pretty well in the dark; not to mention that sight developed in water, where it was much darker than on the surface anyway, so if this planet had similar enough conditions for life, darkness would still be a significant factor in the evolution of sight. A more active system (better pupils or even a different lid construction) seems more likely. If the light is even brighter in the first place :D | |
