I wouldn't put too much stock in Lemurs, Tarsiers, and Bush Baby eyes being large being an indicator of anything more than being nocturnal animals.

We have lots of nocturnal animals now; other than for the three or four I noted, none have the kinds of eyes which hominids or dinosaurs did. Big cats certainly don't have eyes like that.

True that.

Primates are notably deficient in the vibrissae department.

Gotta compensate somehow...
