Basic arrangement of spider eyes, viewed from above. Most spiders have eight eyes, which tend to be arranged into two rows of four eyes on the head region. The eyes can be categorised by their location and are divided into the anterior median eyes (AME), anterior lateral eyes (ALE), posterior median eyes (PME), and posterior lateral eyes (PLE).
Female banded tunnelweb spider eyes occupy around half their head space, whereas males differ, having slightly smaller lateral eyes. [6] Banded tunnelweb spiders are part of the infraorder Mygalomorphae. Mygalomorphs are a relatively ancient kind of spider that have downward pointing fangs, which have been compared to pick axes.
Spiders do not have compound eyes, but instead have several pairs of simple eyes with each pair adapted for a specific task or tasks. The principal and secondary eyes in spiders are arranged in four, or occasionally fewer, pairs. Only the principal eyes have moveable retinas. The secondary eyes have a reflector at the back of the eyes.
The tapetum is a reflective layer at the back of the eye, thought to increase sensitivity in low light levels. Lycosoids were then defined by having a "grate-shaped" tapetum. Research from the late 1990s onwards suggests that this feature has evolved more than once, possibly as many as five times, [ 1 ] so that the original Lycosoidea is ...

Six-eyed spiders are spiders that, unlike most spider species, lack the principal pair of eyes, leaving them with only six eyes instead of the usual eight. [1]
The eye arrangement of spiders in the genus Dysdera. Adults have a reddish-brown body and legs, and can grow up to 2 centimetres (0.79 in) long. Females are generally larger growing from 1.1 to 1.5 centimetres (0.43 to 0.59 in), while males are about 0.9 to 1 centimetre (0.35 to 0.39 in). [4]
Araneus ventricosus walking on plant in South Korea [1]. Araneus ventricosus is a nocturnal orb-weaver spider [2] found primarily in China, Japan, and Korea [3] that has been involved in numerous research studies and is easily identified by its nocturnal web-building behavior. [4]
