Not as is commonly thought a billion images, the compound eye actually puts together all the images. They actually see in a mix of real time and slow motion. What they cannot see or detect is slow moving objects. How many times have you tried to swat a stationary fly only for it to be gone before the impact? try going in very very slowly and your success rate will rise! seriously they are not psychic!
There was a study done and it beats me how they did it but they managed to fuse some sort of microchip to the optical centre of the fly's brain and translate the data into a viewable image. I'm searching for it now as i type this, but this question came up on the Google search.

What does it mean when the eye of a hurricane is shrinking in diameter?
Diameter means the space from one side of the circle to the other, cutting throught the center-most point. To answer your question, it means the eye of the hurricane is getting smaller; the diameter length becoming less and less, thus shrinking. If the eye of a hurricane is shrinking that usually means the storm is strengthening.
