    Can't see 3-D movies

    I just realized something after visiting seaworld this past weekend. I sat down to watch the 3-d show they had with the glasses and all, but nothing popped out. It was very fustrating. I use to be able to watch these movies with no problem when I was younger, I am 24 now. Before I ask my O.D. tomorrow, just wondering what you guys think about this. My eyes are not crossed or anything. I have minor myopia along with some astig and was not wearing my glasses at the time. Thanks

    You might have a small angle strabismus. (microtropia). Have it checked.

    could this be corrected with glasses/contacts?

    if you cant see 3 D movies then it means you dont have binocular vision i.e. your 2 eyes dont work together,you are using either your RE or LE to process visual information

    There are a number of reasons for this to occur,however it is not apropriate to discuss them on this forum.I suggest you see your eye doctor.
