Spider vision

Spider vision

Most insects have compound eyes, which are curved arrays of microscopic lenses. Each tiny lens captures an individual image, and the mosquito's brain puts all of the images together to achieve peripheral vision without the insect having to move its eyes or head. Spiders usually have eight eyes, but few have good eyesight. Some spiders have median eyes that can detect polarised light and they use this ability to navigate while hunting.
