+# NAME
+
+Return::Type::Lexical - Same thing as Return::Type, but lexical
+
+# VERSION
+
+version 0.001
+
+# SYNOPSIS
+
+    use Return::Type::Lexical;
+    use Types::Standard qw(Int);
+
+    sub foo :ReturnType(Int) { return "not an int" }
+
+    {
+        no Return::Type::Lexical;
+        sub bar :ReturnType(Int) { return "not an int" }
+    }
+
+    my $foo = foo();    # throws an error
+    my $bar = bar();    # returns "not an int"
+
+    # Can also be used with Devel::StrictMode to only perform
+    # type checks in strict mode:
+
+    use Devel::StrictMode;
+    use Return::Type::Lexical check => STRICT;
+
+# DESCRIPTION
+
+This module works just like [Return::Type](https://metacpan.org/pod/Return%3A%3AType), but type-checking can be enabled and disabled within
+lexical scopes.
+
+There is no runtime penalty when type-checking is disabled.
+
+# METHODS
+
+## import
+
+The `check` attribute can be used to set whether or not types are checked.
