Optical illusions are mind-bending images that trick our brains into perceiving something that differs from reality. They can deceive our visual system into seeing things that aren’t actually there or can lead our eyes to misinterpret the visual.
In ancient times, such illusions were often associated with witchcraft, spirits, or supernatural forces. However, scientists later discovered that these tricks are simply the result of how our brains process visual information.
Many optical illusion images are designed by clever manipulation of objects, colours, etc. These elements are strategically arranged to create deceptive effects, making hidden details appear or disappear.
