Cyclops shark

you see these kinds of birth defects in people, too, unfortunately.

One of the most grotesque pictures I've ever seen of developmental defects was of a baby that was born with nothing but one giant (malformed) eye on it's face. Needless to say it wasn't born live.

What effect does cyclopsy have on brain functionality I wonder? Would it make everything in life seem 'straight forward' ha ha.
