If you were to close to the TV it would most likely effend your eyes. Including if you were sitting on your sofa it wouldn't affect your eyes...but it can if you've been watching it for too long.

Yes.

The old standard monitors flicker every few seconds. You may not notice it because it happens very quickly, but these flickers can cause eye strain.

Staring at a computer screen, new or old, for a long will also damage your eyes, particularly if you sit too close to the screen. Your vision could drop as your eyes try to adjust to prevent physical damage, resulting in you needing glasses.

Try and get a screen-protector specially designed to protect the eyes from long exposure.

Looking at a very close-by object (such as TV, cell phone, computer) for a long period of time without looking in the distance can be bad for eyes.

No. Computers and television can cause eye strain or fatigue but will not cause permanent damage.

Yes It could. While the old wive's tale that sitting too close to the tv can make you go blind is simply not true, it is possible that sitting too close to the screen (tv, computer, or otherwise) for too long can definitely cause eyestrain (which is temporary), or, in some people, myopia, or nearsightedness (which tends to be permanent unless you get corrective surgery).
