   @chiasm Thanks! It gave me some search terms.
   
   Apparently having different stages of eyes happens all the time in arthropods, but we're not clear on which eye evolved from which, or if one might be an independent evolution.
   
   Some have simple eyes or eye spots that we're pretty sure evolved from a more complex faceted eye. Some have simole eyes that might have evolved independently from their faceted eyes. I think that's what the text is saying: "some taxa have secondarily developed simple eyes"
