Optical Illusion: The objective of optical illusions is to deceive our visual system through the clever representation of the images. They are also known as visual illusions, and pop culture is rife with examples of how frequently they are used as simple tools for testing the intelligence of individuals.
There are three main types of optical illusions: literal, physiological, and cognitive.
Literal illusions occur when our brains misinterpret the physical properties of an object.
Physiological illusions are caused by the way our eyes and brains process light and colour.
Cognitive illusions occur when our brains make assumptions about what we are seeing, even when the evidence contradicts those assumptions.
Optical illusions are fun to engage with yet challenging at times, and they are also helpful in boosting observation skills. Regular practise of optical illusions is suggested to improve perception and critical thinking.
