I think you are mistaking cause end effect. If the sun were a point source, the layout of our eyes (and our behaviours) would have evolved differently to compensate.
Alternatively, if the diameter of the sun (or the apparent diameter of the sun) quickly changed that much, our eyesight is the least of our worries.
