'''Vergence-accommodation conflict''' ('''VAC'''), also known as '''accommodation-vergence conflict''' or sometimes '''accommodation-vergence mismatch''', is a visual and perceptual phenomenon that occurs when the [[Brain|brain]] receives mismatching cues between the distance to which the eyes are pointed or converged ([[Vergence|vergence]]) and the distance at which the eyes' lenses are focused ([[Accommodation (eye)|accommodation]]).<ref name="Hoffman2008">Hoffman D M, Girshick A R, Akeley K, Banks M S.
