A step-by-step "how-to" instruction.
Optics is the study of how light (moreso Electromagnetic Radiation) travel and interact with objects (solid state physics, electrodynamics etc.). Optical illusions deal with how light is interpreted by the human brain. So optics studies how light gets to the eye, optical illusion is about how the brain perceives that light.
