Which animal doesn't have eyelids?

Hmm, I believe Eyelids are mainly found amongst vertebrates. Most animals that have eyes are not vertebrates. Most vertebrates are fish and fish have no eyelids. So my hunch is point to any random animal that has eyes, and there is probably >95% chance it has no lids.
