Mind-blowing optical illusion transforms before your eyes but 1% CAN’T see it – can you?

AN OPTICAL illusion that changes what you see within seconds is tricking just about everyone’s brains.

The cool transformation happens without anything actually moving in the image.

But not everyone can see what’s hidden.

It appears to show several squares stacked out in black and white lines.

If you stare into it long enough, you should see circles magically show up instead.

And once you see them, it’s quite hard to go back.

“Oh when that kicks in it’s real good,” one user said on Reddit.

“Was trying to figure out what the hell you guys meant, and then boom,” another commented.

“My eyes crossed just slightly, and I saw it. Wow. Just wow.”

However, a small percentage of people are struggling to see it at all – and no one really knows why.

“I HAVE BEEN STARING AT THIS FOR 5 MINUTES AND I STILL CAN’T SEE IT,” one frustrated user said.

“THE COMMENTS ARE DRIVING ME INSANE. IT FEELS LIKE I’M BEING ELABORATELY GASLIGHTED.”

For anyone struggling, one viewer has a few suggestions.

“The circles are roughly the same height as the squares, on the same horizontal plane as the squares, and they are in between the squares,” the person explained.

“The diagonal lines coming away from the four corners of the squares are actually slightly curved and they make up part of the circumference of the circles.

“It helps if you don’t look at the center of the squares but look at the spaces between the squares.

“I couldn’t see it until I clicked on the picture and slightly enlarged it.”

For those still struggling, the image below exposes them.
