Kids have been staring at screens for much of their lives and 3D tech is nothing new. We would already see the impact if it was really as bad as some believe.

That article says nothing about simulated 3D visuals, or how a child's developing eyes could potentially be affected when repeatedly presented with unusual and unnatural stimuli.

Until there's conclusive, scientific proof that features like simulated 3D do not impair the development of young kids' vision, eye muscles, visual perception, spacial awareness, coordination, etc., companies will most likely continue to protect themselves by putting warnings on products with this type of feature, and many parents will most likely continue to heed those warnings if they have young children.

The person I responded to claimed eyes were already being damaged by screens. I was just showing a source saying no proof of that.

A lot of products have warnings just to avoid getting sued, 3DS is a case of that. But we've essentially gone through the entire life of 3DS and still no evidence.
