There Are 16 Circles In This Image, And Most People Can’t Find Them Right Away
777Kviews
Check out the pattern below. What do you see? A bunch of lines and boxes, right? Well, believe it or not, there are actually sixteen circles hiding in this eye trick. We know, it sounds crazy, but you’ll just have to trust us on this one.
It’s called the Coffer Illusion, and it was a finalist in the 2006 Best Optical Illusion Picture of the Year contest. It was created by Anthony Norcia, formerly of the Smith-Kettlewell Eye Research Institute, and it’s called the Coffer Illusion image because Coffer is an architectural term used to refer to a series of sunken panels in various shapes.
This mind trick was recently uploaded by somebody called i124nk8, and it’s been astounding and bamboozling the internet ever since. Some people can see the circles, and some people can’t. Can you? Then let us know in the comments below!
Optical illusions work by using color, light, and patterns to create cool images that are designed to confuse the brain. They occur because our mind is trying to interpret what our eyes see, thereby creating a perception that doesn’t match the real image in front of us.

To easy if you can't see it go slightly out of focus / cross-eyed !
Thanks, Andrew! Once you see them, it's obvious.
Thanks for the clue. Right, a magic eye.
Weird, for me it's the opposite. The wider I open my eyes the more clear, it took me a while... As long as Im focusing on one point.
Thanks Andrew, I'm usually good at these things, couldn't see them until I read your comment, then bam!
both worked for me too !
I agree that you have to go somewhat cross-eyed
This is awesome. :) Thanks for the hint!
I'm having trouble seeing the squares...
Best giggle of the Morning!
If you zoom the picture a bit that seems to make them very apparent.
I couldn't see it right away!!! But once you see it, you can't hide it from you again!!! Is something that you brain just lean?
Not only can I not see any circles, I don't believe there are any circles in the pattern.
I take it all back, I can see them now.
"I take it all back, I can see them now. " Loved it! Good for you!
I'm with ya , ONLY squares
I don't see them now matter what I do
Took time but saw them eventually. Was it done by design or by accident ?
