It is more natural to say “he has poor eyesight” or “I think he has poor vision.”

The first one is the most natural. I can understand the meaning from the other two sentences, but they are not natural. It would be more common to say "vision impairment", "bad vision", "blurry vision", "poor eyes", just to give you some examples.

"He can't see well" or "he doesn't see well" are better than "has a defect of vision." You could say "He has poor vision" also.

The first one sounds fine but is casual.
A better way to say it is "I think he has a vision impairment."
