 ==Enhancements==
-An overall enhancement of vision is consistently reported at the lowest levels of [[psychedelic]] experience and extremely common on certain [[stimulants]] and [[entactogens]]. It can be generally defined as an overall increase in the level of visual input attributed to the external environment that a person experiences. It is manifested through 3 separate subcomponents.
