'''Visual disconnection''' is the experience of becoming distant and detached from one's sense of vision. At its lower levels, this leads to states such as [[acuity suppression]], [[double vision]], [[pattern recognition suppression]], and [[ | '''Visual disconnection''' is the experience of becoming distant and detached from one's sense of vision. At its lower levels, this leads to states such as [[Visual acuity suppression|visual acuity suppression]], [[double vision]], [[pattern recognition suppression]], and [[Visual processing deceleration|visual processing deceleration]]. The experience of this effect can also create a wide range of subjective changes to a person's perception of their own vision. These are described and documented in the list below: | ||

Visual disconnection is often accompanied by other coinciding effects such as [[consciousness disconnection|cognitive disconnection]] and [[physical disconnection]] in a manner which results in the sensation that one is partially or entirely detaching from both their sensory input and their cognitive faculties. This effect is most commonly induced under the influence of [[dosage#common|moderate]] [[dosage|dosages]] of [[depressant]] and [[dissociative]] compounds, such as, [[ketamine]], [[PCP]], and [[DXM]] | Visual disconnection is often accompanied by other coinciding effects such as [[consciousness disconnection|cognitive disconnection]] and [[physical disconnection]] in a manner which results in the sensation that one is partially or entirely detaching from both their sensory input and their cognitive faculties.

At its higher levels, visual disconnection can become all-encompassing in its effects. This results in a complete perceptual disconnection from one's sense of sight which can be described as the experience of being blinded and unable to tell whether the eyes are open or closed due to a total lack of sensory input. During this state, the effect often leads one into the experience of finding themselves floating through a dark and mostly empty hallucinatory void. | At its higher levels, visual disconnection can become all-encompassing in its effects.

*'''Structural transformations''' - Structures can switch between each other by transforming or shapeshifting in a static and comprehensible way. This is something that usually unfolds in a gradual step by step morphing process. | *'''Structural transformations''' - Structures can switch between each other by transforming or shapeshifting in a static and comprehensible way.

*'''Structural panning''' - Structures can switch between each other by remaining static in their shape but merely panning out of view until they are no longer within one's field of vision. It’s from here that another structure usually comes into view from outside of one's peripheral vision within a few seconds to a couple of minutes. | *'''Structural panning''' - Structures can switch between each other by remaining static in their shape but merely panning out of view until they are no longer within one's field of vision.

*'''Traveling over great distances''' - The third method of transitioning is experienced when the structures appear to be stationary while one is floating silently between them over what can feel like extreme physical distances. This floating is sometimes felt to occur on an invisible rail through the vast and infinite dissociative hole.</onlyinclude> | *'''Traveling over great distances''' - The third method of transitioning is experienced when the structures appear to be stationary while one is floating silently between them over what can feel like extreme physical distances.
