How many eye does bees have?

Answer 1

Five. There are three simple eyes, called ocelli, in a triangle on top of the head, and two compound eyes.

The ocelli only detect the presence of light, and do not form an image. The compound eyes form an image rather like a mosaic, not a finely detailed image, but they are very sensitive to movement. A bee's colour vision extends into the ultra-violet part of the spectrum, but is less sensitive to red. Bees are also able to distinguish plane polarized light, which they use for navigation.

Answer 2

Bees have five eyes. They have two large compound eyes on the sides of their head that are made up of many tiny hexagonal lenses, as well as three smaller simple eyes on the top of their head that detect light intensity.
