Crayfish have one pair (i.e., two) compound eyes, located on eyestalks at the front of their head on either side of the rostrum - the "nose" spike. Each compound eye is made up of thousands of tiny lenses arranged in a convex grid.
compound
Crayfish have compound eyes, which are made up of multiple individual visual units called ommatidia. Each ommatidium contains its own lens and photoreceptor cells, allowing crayfish to detect light and form images. This compound eye structure provides crayfish with a wide field of vision and the ability to detect motion effectively.
A crayfish eye is small and typically black in color. It has a compound structure with many tiny lenses that allow the crayfish to see movement and changes in light. They are located on stalks on either side of the crayfish's head.

A wasp has three simple eyes -- called ocelli -- on the top of its head. These are in addition to the two compound eyes.the compound eyes are the wasp's organs of vision; the ocelli don't form images and help the insect orient while in flight.
It allows the crayfish to burrow into the river bed and leave its eyes protruding to look for danger.
The compound eye senses light.
Grasshoppers have TWO COMPOUND EYES AND THREE SIMPLE EYES.

Butterflies have a compound eye because they, like flies, grasshoppers, and other insects, as well as crabs and crayfish (and a ton of other things!) are arthropods. All arthropods have compound eyes, in contrast to vertebrates, which have camera eyes.
compound eyes and simple eyes
The entire thing is called a compound eye, with many facets, or ommatidia (simple individual eyes). Insects also have three non-compound eyes between their large compound eyes, on the top of their heads. These are called ocelli.
