I am currently planning to measure the compound eye of dozens of closely related insect species and wanted to get some sense of the best metrics.  As a start, I had planned to count ommatidia.  I also wanted to generate a metric related to % of head the compound eye covers, and to comparatively measure the optic lobe relative to head size.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated!  Cheers!
