Does age affect your ability to see optical illusions?

Yes, age can affect the ability to perceive optical illusions. As people age, changes in vision, such as decreased contrast sensitivity and slower processing speed, can influence how they interpret visual information. Additionally, cognitive factors related to age, such as experience and familiarity with certain patterns, may also impact the perception of optical illusions. However, individual differences can vary widely, making it difficult to generalize across all age groups.
