Roaches have a pair of compound eyes, each made up of more than 2,000 individual hexagonal-shaped facets that each have its own optic nerve. They are nocturnal insects and have good night vision, although they do not respond red light. Their compound eyes allow them to see all around them without moving, and this ability makes them very sensitive to seeing any nearby movement.
