We tend to think of what we see as the real world. However, in everything that we see, there is a slight distortion. The cells of the primary visual cortex create small distortions, which then pass on to the higher levels of the brain, to interpret as best it can. These interpretations, if inexplicable, are then interpreted with some experience or memory that may seem to explain what the eye is seeing. The brain also uses the context of what is being seen to explain it. A common example of this that is often exploited by artists and designers is known as the tilt illusion, where perfectly vertical lines appear tilted because they are placed on an oriented background.
