3 D Movie Syndrome

I was fortunate enough to be asked by the American Optometric Association to be featured on the AOA's digital TV program (I Want My AOA TV) in their Member's Spotlight segment. This segment discusses 3 D Movie Vision Syndrome, where movie goers get more than their monies worth...unfortuantely what they typically get includes headache, eye strain, diplopia (seeing double)....and NO 3 D!!

Before you go to a 3 D movie, it might be an excellent idea to have a comprehensive vision examination by an optometrist. Go to http://www.AOA.org and http://www.COVD.org (College of Optometrists in Vision Development) to find a doctor who can help click on their "Doctor's Locator". Other questions? Email me at dmaino@ico.edu, conduct a search by typing "3 D" in the search box in the upper left of this blog, and vision http://www.NW.optometry.net and http://www.ICO.edu.

Dan....thanks.... It seems as if the AOA has really latched on to this 3 D Movie Vision Syndrome....and wants to tell all about the possible eye problems associated with the symptoms....and, of course, COVD should be very happy about this. Please tell the AOA you like what they are doing and support the AOA 100%
