Hey @cumsplunge (please don't make me say your name again)! I saw your tags and I wanted to note that, while most spiders have relatively poor eyesight, there are actually many spiders with very good eyesight! The most obvious example is ogre-faced spiders, which are named after the distinctive look their massive eyes give them. Just look at 'em!
These little guys are also known as net-casting spiders and, as you might guess from the name, catch prey by actually casting a net of their webbing!
As such, having huge eyes gives them the eyesight to properly see and aim their net. Other spiders such as wolf spiders also have good eyesight, but ogre-faced spiders are easily my favorite. If you want to learn more about ogre-spiders, check out this hilarious (and informative) video by Ze Frank on Youtube:
