Circles are not always invisible. A circle made up by a closed-loop line source of photons would be visible. (They're kind of hard to make, though.)
It's sort of the question of what is the smallest thing a human can "see". Stars, for example, are extremely small, far below the resolution of the human eye (outside of the atmosphere, of course). Yet seeing them is not a problem, you just get an unresolved image.
