I can't see out of both eyes at once either and failed the 3d vision test my eye specialist did, weirdly though i looked at a 3d tv at the supermarket and it looked a little like it was coming out of the tv...

Lol poor kid..you can just feel the awkwardness.

To the OP: I'll bet your nephew was a LOT more embarrassed than you were, and will still be mentally beating himself up for his insensitivity long after you've forgotten this incident. IMHO 3D movies/TV aren't all that much better than 2D. Nearest equivalent I can think of was that I grew up with a B/W TV, and later realized that for most programs color really doesn't add anything.

OMFG! my little cousin is too! and yet I've only just ******* realised I took him to see harry potter in 3D. he never complained. damn it!

you dont need 2 eyes for 3D anymore.

@ #52 , they didnt say a specific country....

@86. I don't know who told you that, but I am legally blind in one eye and can not see 3D. So, yes, you do need two eyes to see 3D. It takes two things you are seeing from each eye and combines them to make it look like it is coming out of the screen.

Op I feel for you. I have lazy eye in both eyes and often can only see out of one at a time. 3D, on occasions I can see it, gives me motion sickness, and most of the time I can't. My parents bought a 60" 3d tv and always invite me over for movies.

I'm in the same boat as you. An undisclosed strabismus case led to an underdeveloped optic nerve....******* sucks don't it?
