Optical illusion: Only with sharp vision can find the odd word in 5 seconds

Optical illusions are amazingly designed visual images that create a trick in our brain. Popularly known as

visual illusions

, they question our perception and have begun to gain widespread popularity in popular culture as an interesting intelligence test. These not only entertain but also challenge our cognitive powers, thus making them a very entertaining and enjoyable activity for people of all ages.
The three main types of optical illusions include literal, physiological, and cognitive.

Literal illusions refer to how the brain mistakenly interprets real physical properties of an object to allow us to see something that doesn’t actually exist. Physiological illusions result from the manner in which the human eye and brain use light, color, or patterns that at times may lead to afterimages or distortions. On the other hand, cognitive illusions happen when our brains assume what we are seeing, even when the visual evidence contradicts those assumptions.
Interestingly, research has shown that solving optical illusions regularly can help improve focus, enhance

observation skills

, and even prevent cognitive decline in adults. By doing these

brain exercises

, you sharpen your ability to identify patterns, focus on details, and think critically.
