Marine and Land hermit crabs both have eyes with which to see. Their vision is believed to not be very sharp.

Moving shadows will cause a land hermit crab to retreat into his shell, as he interprets this as a possible predator who may be coming to eat him.

Hermit crabs do not have ears, however, and are extremely sensitive to vibrations. Their antennae sense vibrations and scents in the air, and this is how they interpret their safety and where they should go to find food.
