Y The Same?

Illusion #57 : Are the V's of the Y's horizontally aligned? Click the image to see - JavaScript Required.

An optical illusion is often an image that contradicts our understanding of reality - the eyes see one thing, and the brain 'sees' something else. The eyes send information to the brain, which then tries to understand the signal and its context, but sometimes it gets confused as it tries to make sense of conflicting clues.
