Depends on what you mean by evolution.
Humans have always adapted to their environments and some properties become inherited though genetics or culture. Enough difference in genes could mean alien anthropologists in far future separating future humans aside from current day homo sapiens, but that's expected.
Evolution doesn't imply "getting better or superior" like popular culture. If a disaster struck earth and we were forced to live underground, our eyes and sense of vision will eventually cease to be as relevant as other senses. People in our days might call it 'devolution', but is it? It simply means they adapted to their environment.
