Optical illusions are one of the most searched things on the internet and are confusing and entertaining at the same time. The beauty of an optical illusion lies in the fact that it may appear a certain way to you the first time but when you look at it from a different angle, you will see a slight change that will confuse you. These illusions are also known as visual illusions, as they deceive the observer as well as our mind and eyes. The origin of optical illusions has always been a hot debate as many researchers trace it back to the architecture of ancient Greece. One of the earliest optical illusions was found on the roof of a Greek temple. The roof is inclined but appears to be a curve, but anyone looking from below will see that it has slopes. This has puzzled many philosophers and has its origins in the 5th Century BC. The theory of optical illusions is a bit complicated because our brains are not at fault but they cannot perceive images. Our senses have largely betrayed us when viewing optical illusions. However, some people have a different theory, like one Greek philosopher who said that the eyes have nothing to do with how we perceive optical illusions, since illusions depend on the environment in which they are seen. Now, let’s try to apply an optical illusion on you and see if you can prove you have good eyes because only 1% of people can solve this task. In the image above, you will be able to see a lush green color with small flowers and shrubs. However, among the visible green things, your task is to find the four-leaf clover that perfectly camouflages the background. You have 20 seconds to prove yourself so hurry up.
