How is math related to optical illusions?
Optical Illusions is all about math and you will know by the time you finish reading this very short, but general status about optical illusions. Optical has a lot to do with math because when your brain is looking at something, you know exactly what it is. But when a professional tells you what the object actually is, you suddenly see it, your brain is doing all the math but it realizes it's messing up and looks at it more carefully.
Does shape have anything to do with optical illusions?
Yes. Science is the study of how and why things do as they do. Optical Illusions are ways to trick your brain into perceiving something in a way that its not. Knowing how and why Optical Illusions do that is all science.
Entertaining your Mind with Optical Illusions?
Optical illusions are pictures that use color, patterns, and light to trick the eyes and brain. When viewing an optical illusion, what the eyes see is interpreted by the brain, but the brain's interpretation does not match the true image. In fact, the brain sees something that is not really there. Optical illusions are fun to look at, but they also help scientists to learn how the brain works. Many optical illusions were created just to study how the brain processes visual information. There are three basic types of optical illusions: literal, physiological, and cognitive. Literal optical illusions form images that are unlike the objects that create them. The best way to understand a literal illusion is to look at one. An example of a literal illusion is the painting Bakery by Octavio Ocampo. In this painting, a woman sits in front of shelves full of bread in a bakery. However, the way the bread is arranged appears to form skulls. Another famous example of a literal optical illusion is the painting All Is Vanityby Charles Allan Gilbert in which a woman sitting at a vanity table looks like a skull when viewed from further away. Physiological illusions happen when excessive stimuli such as brightness, color, movement, or tilt, for example, cause the eyes or brain to see something that is not there. These illusions can also occur when stimuli compete. The Hermann grid illusion is a famous example of a physiological optical illusion. The Hermann grid is a white grid on a black background. When looking at it there appear to be gray dots at the intersections of the white lines, although in reality there are no gray dots. This is due to a physiological phenomenon called lateral inhibition which is when light and dark photoreceptors compete with each other and one part wants to become active and the other does not. This causes a perceptual illusion of gray dots on the grid. Cognitive illusions occur when the eye and brain make unintentional inferences. There are four types of cognitive illusions: ambiguous, distorting, paradox, and fictional. Ambiguous illusions offer two interpretations of a picture or object, but both can't be seen at the same time. A famous example of an ambiguous illusion is the Rubin vase, which either looks like a white vase or two face silhouettes facing each other. Distortions in length, size, and curves appear to be present in distorting illusions. A famous example of this type of illusion is the arrow illusion, otherwise known as the Mueller-Lyer illusion. In this illusion there are two lines that are the same size but one has the ends pointing in and one has ends pointing out; most people say that the line with the ends pointing in is longer. Paradox illusions are objects that are impossible in real life but look real in drawings, such as the Penrose stairs, which seem to go on forever without getting any higher. This illusion is due to the faulty belief that adjacent edges have to meet. The Penrose triangle is another example of a paradox illusion. Fictional illusions are only seen by a single person; they are actually hallucinations. They can be induced by alcohol or drugs, or by health conditions such as schizophrenia. Examples of fictional illusions are seeing double of one object or seeing something move when it really doesn't. Literal, physiological, and cognitive illusions all deceive the eyes and brain. People have been fascinated by optical illusions throughout history, and continue to be fascinated by them today. Paintings, books, and drawings of optical illusions have become famous because they are fun to look at; however, they also help scientists to discover how the brain works. Fun and science often go hand in hand.

Where can one find examples of eye illusions online?
Eye Illusions have been stocked and collected in a number of websites, all focused on the various types of optical illusions found in both published books and scattered about the web.
What is literal optical illusions?
Literal optical illusions can be any illusion so long as it looks either like two things, the opposite of what it actually is. for example: In some images, it looks like the lines are all wonky/crooked, when they are all actually straight!! I hope this helps! Also, you can type 'literal optical illusions' into Google images if you would like some images. P.S. I did try to put two images on but it wouldn't let me, sorry.
Can every one see optical illusions?
I really doubt anyone has done a survey of that, but I'd guess that most people have. After all, if you've seen a rainbow or sunset you've seen an optical illusion.
