July 11th, 2010 at 7:30 pm I have a Mitsubishi 73737. My question is: if I buy the 3d starter pack will the 3d glasses fit over prescription eye glasses?

But the design of 3D glasses is such that YES, it will work wearing them over prescription glasses. Keep in mind that the active shutter glasses are bulkier and a wider format than the polarized glasses handed out at movie theaters. So if you have large prescription glasses or bifocals you may experience a bit of fatigue. Put simply, they will work with glasses but it’s not ideal. It won’t be a tight fit and you’ll have more weight on your nose. But unless and until 3D is produced without the need for glasses, it is a necessary compromise if you want to have the experience and you wear glasses. I would guess that the short time of watching a movie would be tolerable enough to warrant investing in the 3D experience.
