Not only bad for your eyes, but bad for your health as well.
The 3d effect is created by forcing your eyes focus to cross in an unnatural way. This causes muscle fatigue and may after an extended period of time cause permanent damage.

∙ 11y agoI haven't heard of any medical advice against watching 3D TV. Of course watching TV --2D or 3D--for too long or too closely is generally bad for the eyes. I don't think 3D TV in particular does any harm to your eyes. But some people do complain about their eyes getting tired because of the flickers and crosstalks, which are common on active 3D TVs.

∙ 11y agoIf you are using shutter glasses, your eyes may get tired if the glasses are not operating properly. Each side of the glasses take turns showing an image frame and a black frame at the same time. If the glasses are good quality and are properly charged, it should not be an issue.
There is no evidence to suggest long term harm caused by 3D glasses.

Is a regular HDTV better than a 3d tv because 3d tvs are bad for the eyes?
Some people cannot use a 3D TV system due to headaches, nausea and motion sickness. No 3D TV system is recommended for children under the age of 6, since it interferes with the development of young eyes. Regular HDTV does not have the same drawbacks, but is only two dimensional.

Who makes flicker free 3D TVs Are Samsung 3D TVs flicker free?
Any 3D television bought today should be flicker free including Samsung. The best way to find out is to experience a range of brands and models. Believe your eyes rather than the LG claim that all other 3D televisions have flicker. Also believe your eyes when you see that the effective resolution of LG 3D is only half that of their competitors.
Is it okay for young children to watch 3D TV?
That depends on how young they are. Children under 6 shouldn't really watch 3D and an adult should supervise children over 6 when watching 3D. You should also know that active 3D TVs like those from Samsung or Sony are more likely to cause headaches, eyestrains and dizziness. They use shutter glass 3D technology which can give a lot of stress to kids' eyes. If you're going to let your kids watch 3D, they should watch a passive 3D TV rather than an active 3D TV. Passive 3D TVs use lightweight 3D glasses that use different technology than shutter glass tech. I have a LG Cinema 3D TV and I don't worry too much about my kids watching it because it's flicker free and doesn't make the kids dizzy and not bad for the eyes because they use passive 3D glasses.

My Kids are fond of playing 3D Games but I am seriously considering about their eyes So is there any Glasses which are free from eyes effect.?
While there is no evidence to support the idea of long term harm from 3D television, the general opinion seems to be that it is wise to limit children's exposure to 3D television. This advice is for all 3D technologies but it is always a good idea to monitor your kids while they are watching 3D.
Why do you get crosstalks with 3D TV and how do you prevent it?
If you're getting crosstalks, you probably have an active 3D TV. Active 3D TVs use shutter glass technology. The images are sent to each lens of the 3D glasses one at a time. Only one of your eyes is supposed to see the image at a time but sometimes both of your eyes see the same image at the same time. This creates a duplicate of an image.
Which television brand doesn't cause dizziness when watching 3D movies?
It can damage your eyes if you watch 3D on faulty Televisions. So brands I recommend are Samsung and many other electronic companies have learned of the dangers of 3D TV so they have a warning now.
