Seventeen thousand (17,000) is the number of lenses that a butterfly has. The lepidopterans in question rely upon compound eyes for vision. Each eye uses 17,000 ommatidia, or light receptors each of which has a cone and cornea that together work as a lens.
Dragonfly has many lenses in it's eye. Probably nature thought that many lenses are required to see many objects. So it is probably natures experiment in evolution of eye. You have single lens in each eye of more evolved animals.
