I think this is because psychedelics allow you to focus one any one particular thing with more of your body than you are generally used to (for some of us, anyhow, at least).
I've noticed that when I hallucinate on psychedelics, it is because I am not actually focusing on what I am looking at, but either to the side or past the object (into the distance). I've found that the most impressive hallucinations occur when I try to focus as far into the distance behind the object as I can. I can say this has something to do with how big my sense of "self" is at that moment, but of course, I cannot directly back up any such talk.
I think it's possible that psychedelics relax your mind and open up left-right brain communication and thus allow your eyes to focus better relative to each other than they normally would, if not actually letting your lenses focus better individually.
