About 576 megapixels for the entire field of view.

Consider a view in front of you that is 90 degrees by 90 degrees, like looking through an open window at a scene. The number of pixels would be:
90 degrees * 60 arc-minutes/degree * 1/0.3 * 90 * 60 * 1/0.3 = 324,000,000 pixels (324 megapixels).

At any one moment, you actually do not perceive that many pixels, but your eye moves around the scene to see all the detail you want. But the human eye really sees a larger field of view, close to 180 degrees. Let’s be conservative and use 120 degrees for the field of view. Then we would see:

120 * 120 * 60 * 60 / (0.3 * 0.3) = 576 megapixels.

Or.

7 megapixels for the 2 degree focus arc… + 1 megapixel for the rest.
