Most near and far sighted folks found no problems. But those who had problems focusing because of unnatural movements of the eye. had tremendous problems with 3D. If your eyes had trouble locking in on centrally focused objects, you are going to have problems with 3D.

This is what we found in our demo's.
Thanks for the info big daddy. I was curious as a non-wearer in that even sunglasses annoy me...the ol' bridge of the nose dealio.

...and I don't care if it's South Korea. That lil' pot o' poison has his grubby little hands in everything.

I'm readin' yer mail good sir, but I would still contend that for consistent home viewership the glasses may be an issue. Avatar was a phenomenon, a happening, and has universally been recognized as the movie to see in the genre and was designed as such. I don't know how excited folks will be to see Righteous Kill or Push with the goofy glasses on...we'll see, I could well be wrong.
