Best Answer

Tarantulas have 8 eyes. A pair of 'main' eyes looks forward. It has 3 more pairs, all smaller than the main pair, spaced around its 'head.' Most tarantulas have pretty much full coverage all around them; some seem to have a small blind spot directly down the back center line. It takes very little movement of the head to cover that spot, when it exists. They have compound eyes, making them very good at detecting motion and using light sources for finding directions (navigating). It seems they have good binocular vision (direct depth perception) in front, quite a bit weaker on the sides and back.
