3D Safety Requirements
• 3D Glasses are NOT designed as sunglasses or safety
glasses and do not provide protection. 3D glasses should
be worn only when viewing 3D material.
• Do not wear the wireless glasses in any situations that
require unimpaired visual perception.
• Children under the age of 5 should not view 3D pro-
gramming.
Under normal conditions, 3D viewing is safe for your movies
or games. Some people may experience discomfort, however.
To minimize the potential for experiencing visual problems or
any adverse symptoms:
• Read and follow any and all safety warnings that accom-
pany your 3D glasses or 3D source devices.
• Maintain a distance of no less than 2 to 2.5 times the
screen height measurement away from the display.
Viewing from too short a distance can strain your eyes.
• Take regular breaks, at least 5 minutes after every hour of
3D viewing.
If you experience any of the following symptoms, discontinue
3D viewing until the symptoms go away:
• nausea, dizziness, or queasiness,
• headache, or eyestrain,
• blurry vision,
• double vision that lasts longer than a few seconds,
Do not engage in any potentially hazardous activity (for
example, driving a vehicle) until your symptoms have com-
pletely gone away. If symptoms persist, discontinue use and
do not resume 3D viewing without discussing your symptoms
with a physician.
