French watchdog urges no 3D for under sixes


COULD BE BAD FOR KIDS: 3D effects in computers, videogames and films could be detrimental to children's still-developing visual system, says a French watchdog.

PARIS: A French health watchdog has recommended that children under six be denied access to 3D films, computers and videogames, and that those up to 13 have "moderate" access. 

The advice is based on a "pioneering" analysis of scientific research into the possible impacts of 3D imaging on the developing eye, the agency ANSES said.
