Can you name an animal that has eyes but no brain?
Scallops have eyes, but I don't think any bivalves have actual brains.

I was actually thinking of the box jellyfish when asking that question! But you're right, scallops and some other shellfish do too I think (depending on how you define "eye").

And also how you define brain. Many brain scientists would say the eyes are part of the (human) brain.
