NO MORE 3D GLASSES FOR ITALIAN KIDS UNDER 6
Italy’s Ministry of Health has ruled that 3D glasses used to watch stereoscopic movies should be limited to viewers age 6 and above. Also, an investigation has been opened into a decision from the Cinema Exhibitors’ Association from last year to allow 3D glasses to be used by viewers as young as 3 years old. Warnings will be added to the instruction packets for all 3D glasses sold for home use.
In addition to recommending they not be used by viewers under age 6, Italy’s Ministry of Health suggests they be used only for one film a day, that they be cleaned regularly to prevent them from becoming a vehicle for spreading germs and that viewers be warned to stop using the glasses if they experience discomfort.
