zoomed in

Enlarged the view

Zoomed in describes a view that has been magnified to show greater detail, as with a camera lens or digital display: The photo is zoomed in on her face.

Figuratively, it suggests narrow focus on particulars rather than the whole picture: We're too zoomed in on short-term results.
