Hm... you do have a point.
I was actually thinking of those albino fish and bats and such too- but guess I wasn't thinking of them being entirely closed off from light, being sentients that would need light for reading, writing and cooking, etc.
BUT... calls to question if DW actually have poorer eyesight than Hyur. I mean... if your light is limited, you'd have to cluster by candlelight, fires, torches, etc... and eyestrain might be significant.
Adaptations would seem logical over time...
But which?
Personally, I'd -definitely- see them as photophobic. I can imagine my DW wearing a hood or some such all the time in the desert to shade her eyes. If there was a headdress such as in GW2 that looked like a blindfold, or one of those eye-veil things that the Miraluka wore, I'd see her wearing them.
I'm actually ok with the eyesight being weaker in light... but still seems that they'd be more sensitive to glimmers of light in the dark than others, mainly because they don't purely exist in the abyssmal dark.
