"This paper analyzes these corrections scientifically and demonstrates that the illusions they are supposed to correct are either non-existent or so small as to be imperceptible."
So the paper claims to demonstrate that there are no optical corrections that work, not that "There are no optical corrections".
If the optical corrections do not work, then it's not clear that there are any optical corrections at all. Maybe they're there and they failed, but it seems at least as likely that they didn't even try.
It has always struck me as unlikely. We build buildings all the time with straight lines, and nobody looks at them and thinks "my house sags".
Their title does not match their overview.

This is supposed to be science, guys.
