I wonder if our vision issues has anything to do with traits from interbreeding between homo sapiens and the other living hominid at the time?

The article you posted says Neanderthals had superior vision. Interbreeding would have been a benefit for our eyesight if anything.



That's not how evolution works though. Their eyes were better but also completely different than ours so to incorporate such a thing with our DNA when they were barely close enough genetically to mate with to begin with would lead to a high possibility of genetic issues. We see similar issues with our digestive and immune systems thanks to neanderthals.
