Read up. Stop calling it optical illusion.

An optical illusion is something that looks like one thing, but is actually something else. If you ever get to go to California, go visit some of the movie sets. Super cool stuff. Those guys have mastered optical illusions for the purpose of cinematic trickery. For example, a lot of the trees and other objects you see on screen are actually made of flat cardboard. In person, they look like flat cardboard. On screen, they look real. An optical illusion.

Anyhow, nuff said on that.
