All in all, our eyes are pretty good at what they do. They can tell that a tree isn't a hamburger. Thanks eyes. But when they do screw up, they screw up big, with strange illusions caused by skewed perspective. For just a few seconds, our dumb eyes can make us think that giants exist, or that we're looking at someone's lost butt lying on the street. But that's not a forgotten road ass, that's just a double-take-causing image of skewed perspective.
It's not like we can go buy better eyes. Unless your eyes are just absolutely terrible, then glasses are a thing. But there's a limit. Once you get up to a certain level of clarity, even someone with the eyes of a fighter pilot is still going to get tricked every once in a while. Maybe there is someone out there who has such perfect vision that optical illusions don't work on them. But before we find that person, strap them down and dissect their delicious, perfect eyeballs, let's enjoy the ride.
