Spanish translation:acomodación
Explanation:
Hello, Victoria.
El término que necesitás es, simplemente, «acomodación». Believe it or not, es un término técnico en este caso.
Es la palabra que en español se define como la "capacidad del ojo para modificar las dimensiones del cristalino y hacer posible una visión nítida de los objetos situados a distancias diversas."
En general, se usa para referirse a la capacidad del ojo humano de acomodarse fácilmente para continuar viendo con nitidez un objeto que pasa, con relativa rapidez, de estar a una distancia determinada a otra más cercana al ojo.

Espero que te resulte útil.
