Barnacles don't move once they settle down as a tiny larvae on their chosen surface. Limpets can move around on their broad foot. Some limpets have holes at the top of the hard shell, others do not. The hole is not closed by plates.

Where are a barnacles eyes?
Both larval and adult barnacles have a single eye - although it's probably more of a "light sensor" than what we think of as an "eye" since it pretty much is only capable of sensing the difference between light and dark/shadow. In the nauplius (larva) it's a spot on top of the the barnacle on the end that would be considered the head. In the adult, the eye is developed/derived from the naupliar eye. Since barnacles attach themselves by their heads (kinda by their forheads) to the surface they are stuck to, the vestigial eye/light-sensor would be on the side, down near where the barnacle has attached itsself to a surface.
