How do optical illusions work?
Seeing is believing right? But what happens when what you’re seeing, isn’t always what it seems to be?
Optical illusions and mind puzzles can often trick even the keenest of minds.
So let’s break down how they work:
Our brain is like a blind supercomputer; it’s very smart, but it can’t see. It’s just a really smart blob.
To figure out what it needs, our eyes tell our brain what the things around us look like. The problem is our eyes only know a handful of words to describe what they see.
Optical illusions happen when our brain and eyes try to speak to each other in simple language but the interpretation gets a bit mixed-up.
A lot of scientists have worked very hard for many years trying to understand how optical illusions work. But the truth is, in many cases, we still don’t know for sure.
Psychologists at The University of Glasgow found that staring at an optical illusion can improve eye sight by allowing you to see small print.
Escape London says puzzles can also give your mind a great workout and may “boost your brain’s activity” which “reduces the risk of dementia.”
