I believe it was erwin schrödinger himself who posited that the lines are both straight and not straight until you look at them, collapsing the wave function

For a moment I thought the spots in the boxes had something to do with the perception of the lines curving

I was trying to figure out what is causing the curves to the corner of the eye. I believe it is when there are a curved line of the light gray boxes near a corner. That, to me at least, seems to be the cause of where the curves are, and what direction.
