YOU might be in the top one per cent and have a perfect 20/20 vision if you can solve this ultimate brainteaser.
Only people with a very high IQ can solve this difficult challenge in under 12 seconds.
The optical illusion shows a sea of number 109 spread across the image.
However, there is an odd number camouflaged in between the numbers.
The task of the challenge is to find the odd number as quickly as possible.
Don’t get confused – the identical numbers can trick your brain into thinking there is no odd number in between.
Most people were left baffled by this complex challenge.
Although it may seem like an ordinary image, this is no easy feat, and the average person gives up after a minute.
But you can try your luck and see if you can crack the challenge and beat these people.
And you have just 12 seconds to solve it and become a winner.
So buckle up, set the timer, and test your puzzle-solving skills.
But be warned, you need the sharpest of eyes and the strongest of minds – and must remain composed throughout.
You are more likely to make mistakes if you try to rush it, so check every square inch of the image.
But did you know that solving optical illusions is a great way of training your brain and improving creative thinking?
Brainteasers are purposefully designed to trick our vision and can be used as simple determiners of intelligence.
Challenges like this, where you have to find an image within an image, aid your brain’s ability to interpret ambiguity.
Optical illusion benefits
RESEARCHERS have developed many tests that show how various brain regions react to optical illusions.
They are not only entertaining, but they also shed light on how our brains interpret visual data.
By giving your brain a little workout on a regular basis, you enhance your ability to focus and observe details.
Studies have shown, people who regularly challenge themselves with optical illusions and puzzles see big improvements in their problem-solving skills, concentration and attention.
Improved concentration and attention span, in turn, can help prevent cognitive decline in older age.
Psychologists at The University of Glasgow found that staring at an optical illusion can improve eyesight by allowing you to see small print.
