No, but looking through a stereo microscope or field binoculars for an
extended period of time, has left me with the same experience of what

I always attributed such an experience to the generic acquiescence of
"eye strain."  I also, recall a feeling of nausea when this phenomenon
was experienced.   Are we talking about the same thing?
