If a company has previously decided that a headhunter refers unqualified clients, or edits resumes, or whatever else they find distasteful, they will be less likely to consider any resume that s/he sends. Best bet is to fire Zeke and find a headhunter with a good reputation.
"There's a great deal of bidirectional communication that goes on in normal eyes-- information not only flowing from eye to brain, but from brain to eye as well. As far as I know these tech just discards these signals. Is this important?"
Actually, communication mediated by the optic nerve is pretty much uni-directional. There is some evidence for a small amount of bi-directional communication in the chicken, but the far greater loss of information comes from the limited number of electrodes in the chip. The eye has on the order of a million ganglion cells whose axons constitute the optic nerve. Further, zapping the retina with extracellular electrodes doesn't replicate the normal visual function of any of these neurons, and people are only beginning to understand the retinal circuitry well enough to understand what happens when current is applied in the extra-cellular space. The answer probably won't be "normal visual signaling".

And how much does it ruin your life if you come up as a false positive?
