Optical isomers are two compounds which contain the same number and kinds of atoms, and bonds (i.e., the connectivity between atoms is the same), and different spatial arrangements of the atoms, but which have non-superimposable mirror images. Each non-superimposable mirror image structure is called an enantiomer.

Optical isomers are configurational isomers that differ in the 3D relationship of the substituents about one or more atoms. Enantiomers are optical isomers that are non-superimposable mirror images.
