10 of the Greatest Optical Illusions




We human's have pretty good vision - but what don't we see?

We don't see things outside our attention, 

.....but this can be improved through practice *sign in with your facebook account*


We don't see things outside our periphery, 



We don't see the entire colour spectrum, unlike the mantis shrimp.

Some of us don't see many colours at all: Try the colour-blindness simulator

We don't see UV light, unlike birds


We only see at a certain speed, unlike dragonflies




We don't see objects without certain cues.... like the spinning girl.  Find the explanation here.


How does our vision shape up compared to different animals?


But how do we know what colour is?  Vsauce - colour is an illusion
