Illusion comes from a Latin word meaning to trick or fool. Our brains often fill in missing information from our eyes to help us understand the world. This is called perception.
Pictures that trick our eyes are called optical illusions. They are a simple way to test how well our brains pay attention.
Scientists study these pictures to understand how our brains see things.
