Optical illusions are phenomena that when perceived by our eye do not conform to reality. These illusions occur when the eyes or the brain are stimulated excessively (as the exposure to different kinds of brightness, color, movement, etc.) or due to cognitive factors in which our knowledge about the world intervenes. In conclusion, the human brain can only concentrate on one object, so when two objects are presented in a single image, confusion is caused and the brain goes into disorder, which leads to see another vision of the seen.

Stare at the center of the image. In a few seconds you will notice how the spots will disappear and you will only see a white background.

These lines seem to cross each other, but in fact they are concentric circles. The arrangement of the frames that form the circle give clues to the brain that lead it to infer a spiral.

When we expose ourselves to a large amount of light of a certain color, the cones that perceive this light become fatigued and stop responding for seconds, which allows the illusion of just witnessing.
