The accomodation reflex!
A three step process that allows us to quickly change focus to looking at something much closer to our face.
3 steps
1. Increasing convexity of the lens - this is under the control of ciliary muscles
2. Eye convergence (both eyes move together towards the midline)
3. Simultaneous miosis (pupillary constriction)
Afferent nerve: CNII (Optic)
