Technology is awesome, and according to the Daily Mail a few years ago, students from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have created an optical illusion that can determine if your eyesight is either good or bad.

This image portrays Marilyn Monroe overlaid on a slightly drawn Albert Einstein.

People with good eyesight will be able to see Einstein on the screen from a normal distance. On the other hand, those who are able to see Monroe, means that their eyes process close images as if they were far away.

Are you able to see Marilyn from a far?

The illusion shows Einstein's subtle lines, which are visible as the image closes in, some of the harder strokes can only be seen from a distance.
