They might have super shallow eyes with a short focal length between the cornea and retina, so less eyeball and more... er, eye...bowl?

If my understanding of optics is correct, this would give them a very wide field of view with a significant amount of fisheying (pardon the pun), which would be fairly good for detection. They'd still have blind spots to their front and rear, so how the things avoid running into anything, I haven't a clue.
