Best Answer

Some viewers find watching 3D television uncomfortable because of the weight of the glasses or simply because the 3D effects can sometimes be disturbing.

Those who experience discomfort should stop watching but other than that, there is no evidence to suggest that watching 3D television is harmful.

Note that there are two types of 3D technology available. Passive 3D uses polarized light to deliver images to the left and right eye continuously. Active 3D switches between the left and right eyes. Both have been reported to cause discomfort but if you cannot tolerate one, take a look at the other and see which suits you best.

Which 3D LED TVs have the 2D to 3D conversion?

LG and Samsung have this feature. Be aware that converting 2D to 3D is not a perfect process and the 3D images may not be accurate or realistic. 3D televisions are designed to work with 3D content so any simulation of 3D from 2D content must be regarded as a bonus feature.


Is there any 3d TV which can convert 2d to 3d images Then it will serve both the purpose of conventional TV and 3d TV?

There are several brands that offer a 3D simulation. It is important to understand that a simulation is never as good as real 3D content and can be disturbing when the simulation is wrong. Try the 2D to 3D conversion when you see the televisions but don't be disappointed when the results are poor.
