'''Apposition eyes''' can be divided into two groups. The typical apposition eye has a lens focusing light from one direction on the [[rhabdom]], while light from other directions is absorbed by the dark wall of the [[ommatidium]]. The [[mantis shrimp]] is the most advanced example of an animal with this type of eye. In the other kind of apposition eye, found in the [[Strepsiptera]], each lens forms an image, and the images are combined in the brain.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Buschbeck |first1=Elke K. |title=The compound lens eye of Strepsiptera: morphological development of larvae and pupae |journal=Arthropod Structure & Development |date=1 July 2005 |volume=34 |issue=3 |pages=315–326 |doi=10.1016/j.asd.2005.04.002 |bibcode=2005ArtSD..34..315B |url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1467803905000411 |access-date=3 July 2022 |language=en |issn=1467-8039|url-access=subscription }}</ref> This is called the schizochroal compound eye or the neural superposition eye (which, despite its name, is a form of the apposition eye).
