'''Optical sliding''' can be described as a physical effect which inhibits the coordination and control of a person's eyes by suppressing their ability to keep them still. This results in the eyes continuously moving in a variety of directions combined with the sensation of not being able to stare motionless at any particular point.  
 
The optical condition [[nystagmus]] causes sufferers very similar symptoms, although the frequency of movement is generally far greater with nystagmus.
 
Optical sliding is often accompanied by other coinciding effects such as [[Visual acuity suppression|visual acuity suppression]] and [[double vision]]. It is most commonly induced under the influence of [[dosage#heavy|heavy]] [[dosage|dosages]] of [[dissociative]] compounds, such as [[ketamine]], [[PCP]], and [[DXM]]. However, it can also occur to a lesser extent under the influence of extremely heavy dosages [[GABAergic]] [[depressant|depressants]].
