Your eyes might have a second lid which would be able to reduce the penetration depth if that would be a problem. I do think that if the world would be as said, then the world and the human equivalent would be more or less able to deal with it. Though if electricity would've only just been generated, then that evolutionary step might not be done, so goods would've taken that role. blindfolds, farraday cages around your sleeping room and alike.

It would be a world in which special objects are marked like in video games which is a fun idea.

I really like you bringing up what you did though, since your comment made me have nice silly thoughts. Thanks!
