I understand that the unaided human eye, under suitable circumstances,

That strikes me as being a quantum event perceived without the aid of
any machine.
JE:-
I don't think that the perception of one photon via the unaided human
eye (if true) would validly allow the claim that the human eye can
perceive unaided, one quantum event.
My main point: quantum theory is not a causative theory of anything,
i.e. a proposed falsifiable process of any science but a mathematical
application which has allowed our pattern perception to go _way beyond
the normal biological range_. This amazing quantum pattern still
requires a proposed falsifiable causative process of science just to be
able to explain it. Only providing the pattern does not allow one iota
of scientific explanation.
The BIG ONGOING PROBLEM is that many mathematicians working within the
sciences today cannot/refuse to separate a pattern from a process
whereas bona fide scientists do so _on just a routine basis_. The
continued misuse of mathematics within the sciences has today, blurred
the critical distinction between pattern and process allowing cause and
effect to become reversed within proposed scientific theories: e.g
Hamilton's inclusive fitness. Such non theories remain typically Post
Modern, i.e. they explain nothing. All they can do is explain things
away... providing welcome political relief to many...
