Optical illusions are tricky images that use colours, lights and different patterns to trick human minds. Illusions can be caused by a variety of factors, including the way the brain interprets images, the way light is reflected off of objects, and the way the eyes are positioned.

These confusions occur because our visual system is not a perfect representation of reality. Our eyes capture light and transmit signals to the brain, which then processes this information. But, our brain's interpretation is influenced by various factors, including past experiences, learned assumptions, and the way visual information is presented.
