Every Tuesday, the “Really?” column in the Science Times section of The New York Times explores an issue to decide whether it’s myth or fact.  Today’s topic, by Anahad O’Connor, was, “The Claim: 3-D Movies Can Induce Headaches and Sickness.”

“THE BOTTOM LINE 3-D movies can cause unnatural eye movements that induce strain and sickness.”  Here’s a link to the whole column: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/09/health/09really.html

A different Times science columnist, Tara Parker-Pope, continued the discussion in a blog.  There’s a broad range of comments: http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/02/08/is-avatar-giving-you-a-headache/
