Here’s the good news and the bad news…
The GOOD: You can buy a 3D TV without using the 3D function.
The BAD: I threw up watching Avatar and I’m not even photosensitive!
I guess you get the message.
Watching 3D can cause other problems in addition to causing seizures. They include: altered vision, lightheadedness, dizziness, eye or muscle twitching, confusion, nausea, loss of awareness, convulsions, cramps and disorientation. (So I’m not such a wuss.)
