What's your eyesight like normally? Do you wear glasses? I'm pretty short sighted, with an astigmatism in one eye, and I think this causes a problem, although I do wear my glasses under the 3D specs. I'm not convinced I'm getting the right effect.


are you asking me or the OP?

Really the OP, but anyone can answer it, if it helps us get some sort of explanation. :D

until recently I had 20/10 vision, but I am getting older and the diabetes is starting to take its toll, so I am down to 20/20 (i know, boohoo, poor me)... I have never enjoyed it... the only exception to that statement is Avatar... it was subtle and amazing, but most of them go for a long reach out into the audience... but rarely are they programmed with the proper mathematics for the convergence, so it feels like someone is ripping my eyes out.

I have astigmatism and I wear glasses, and I can't see 3-D television, either. Depending on the film, I can sometimes see it in the theatre. It mostly depends on how well the 3-D is done and what type it is, I think.
