Saying "have got" is perfectly good grammar and its use to mean "have" is completely standard. Technically, though, "got" is the past tense of "get", so when you ask someone "Can't you see it? Haven't you got eyes?" you're really asking, "Haven't you obtained eyes?" Which I guess you did at some point in your foetal development, but still.
