Nice pic, you have got the eyes beautifully. The Aidgap key works on the wing veination but it might need some better eyesight than mine to get your to species. Suggest its probably Chrysopa perla

Chrysoperla carnea agg. is an aggregation of several very similar species-indistinguishable in most cases without either hearing their song, or dissection. This is one of them.
