Their eyes function, it’s just pretty dark in the womb.

“At birth, a newborn's eyesight is between 20/200 and 20/400”, so “function” is about as loose as saying “pretty dark” when literally in complete darkness.

What I’m saying is that the eyes technically function, but they can’t see.

Which leads me back to my original comment, babies aren’t seeing anything before they are born. Your comment is needless is what I’m saying.

Not kittens. Blind for several weeks after being born. Blind before then.
