Self-fulfilling prophecy
“The self-fulfilling prophecy is, in the beginning, a false definition of the situation evoking a new behaviour which makes the original false conception come true. This specious validity of the self-fulfilling prophecy perpetuates a reign of error. For the prophet will cite the actual course of events as proof that he was right from the very beginning.[1]”

This phenomenon refers especially to aircraft pilots and underwater divers,[1] but can be also induced in normal conditions — chemically or physically (e.g. by blindfolding). ”

Peripheral Vision Loss (Tunnel Vision)
“Peripheral vision problems mean that you don’t have a normal, wide-angle field of vision, even though your central vision may be fine.
Moderate and severe cases of peripheral vision loss create the sensation of seeing through a narrow tube, a condition commonly referred to as “tunnel vision.”
Symptoms of peripheral vision loss also can include difficulty seeing in dim light and decreased ability to navigate while you are walking.”
