'''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: | ||

*'''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.
