A mathematical model is proposed for the error detector of the human visual accommodative system. The model supposes that the accommodative error detector derives both the direction and the magnitude of the accommodative error from naturally-occurring oscillations of the lens and their effects on retinal-image contrast. Differential operators take the first derivatives of two time varying functions: lens power and retinal-image contrast. Directional information is obtained by comparing the signs of these two derivatives and magnitude information is obtained by comparing their amplitudes.
