He's already argued that the blind spots and backwards, incompetent construction of our eyes are somehow good design. This despite the fact that his purported "advantage" of the eyes reversed veins and nerves, blocking UV light, is something they don't do very well and which could have been done much better by simply making the lenses in our eyes polarised. According to Ham God apparently knows how to do this because other animals have them, so why don't we?
It's clear, from Ham's claim that blind spots are "good design" and that he doesn't suffer from glaucoma. The blind spot in each eye is so because that is where the nerves collect and emerge from the eyeball and hence there are no light receptors. Like most other drainage systems, the system for draining fluid from the eyes sometimes gets clogged and pressure builds up in the eye. The fluid forces its way out through the blind spot and in the process can easily damage the nerve fibres, leading to loss of vision in parts of the eye - known to sufferers and the medical profession as glaucoma. If our eyes were designed like octopus eyes we wouldn't have this problem.
