Take a chill people...

There's a scientific explanation for why #TheDress looks black and blue to some people and white and gold to the others.

(But seriously, it looks white and gold, amIRight?)

Although your eyes perceive colors differently based on color preceptors in them called cones, experts say your brain is doing the legwork to determine what you're seeing -- and it gets most of the blame for your heated debates about #TheDress.
"Our brain basically biases certain colors depending on what time of day it is, what the surrounding light conditions are," said optometrist Thomas Stokkermans, who directs the optometry division at UH Case Medical Center in Cleveland, Ohio. "So this is a filtering process by the brain."
Objects appear reddish at dawn and dusk, but they appear blueish in the middle of the day, Stokkermans said.

So we can recognize the same objects in different light conditions, our brains tweak the way we see things, he added.
"The brain is very good at adjusting and calibrating so you perceive light conditions as constant even though they vary widely," he said.
