The eyes have it: Men do see things differently to women
The way that the visual centers of men and women’s brains works is different, finds new research published in BioMed Central’s open access journal Biology of Sex Differences. Men have greater sensitivity to fine detail and rapidly moving stimuli, but women are better at discriminating between colors.
Not sure what your mean by it doesn’t work that way
If men were predominantly doing the hunting, women would be more likely to choose a more successful hunter (more likely to pass on their genes if they have a better mate)
Also in general the ones who were better at hunting and their mates would be more likely to survive long enough to have children

I would argue there that there’s a limit to how much better eyesight would affect things like that though, falling over and dying
Using that example if someone’s vision is like an old CRT they might not see a root or something, trip over and die. If they have 1920x1080 they might see it if they have 4k they definitely see it.
Hunting however can benefit limitlessly, the further away you can see the better you can track

I’m not arguing good vision is not important for general survival, but I think hunting has a higher ceiling of usefulness for good vision than anything else humans did in that period
