Optical illusions are anything which is made to deceive us easily through what we see.

Human curiosity means solving these perplexing puzzles can bring a great sense of satisfaction to us and not only this but they are good for our brains too.

Previously we told how the imagery is more than just find and game – some pictures can actually improve our health.

Psychologists at The University of Glasgow found that staring at an optical illusion can improve eyesight by allowing you to see small print.

And according to ZenBuisness: “These visual puzzles can give you a good mental workout that can, in turn, help you think more efficiently and solve problems more easily.”

Below is the answer to the dog puzzle as well as some more to try.

Optical illusion benefits

RESEARCHERS have developed many tests that show how various brain regions react to optical illusions.

They are not only entertaining, but they also shed light on how our brains interpret visual data.

By giving your brain a little workout on a regular basis, you enhance your ability to focus and observe details.

Studies have shown, people who regularly challenge themselves with optical illusions and puzzles see big improvements in their problem-solving skills, concentration and attention.

Improved concentration and attention span, in turn, can help prevent cognitive decline in older age.
