What sort of trope relates to a character mistaking what he saw or observe when it was obviously wrong? In my page's case, the main character easily mistook his classmate's height being almost the same when the latter was one whole foot shorter than the former. The classmate pointed out the main character's mistake. And no, the main character doesn't have bad eye-sight; rather, he is good in observations and descriptions.
