The eyes are designed to optimize vision, adapting based on environmental feedback.{{citation needed}} This is a normal thing that the eyes do from early childhood.{{citation needed}} The eyeball changes shape and size to optimize the [[focal plane]] while the [[visual cortex]] interprets the signal.{{citation needed}} Returning from [[lens induced myopia]] involves a drastic change to the [[focal plane]], even when it is carried out over a long period of time; the change is larger than anything the [[visual cortex]] would have encountered in nature, without lenses.

The change to the size and shape of the eyeball, in response to [[~~hyperopic~~ defocus]], happens relatively quickly. The [[double vision]] is a lag-period where the [[visual cortex]] is learning to interpret the changed signal it is receiving; it is learning to "align" the images.

Because the changes to the eye and the brain don't occur at the same pace progression of visual perception is generally experienced as:
