Sorry to hear that. I guess this is one of the problems you have to encounter with Active 3D glasses. Another problem is that they’re expensive, heavy on the eyes, and takes time to recharge. LG passive 3D glasses will do you just fine since the LG 3D TV always comes with at least four pairs of free 3D glasses that you can share with family members and friends.

This is another thing I don't like about active 3D.. I wear glasses and active 3D does not have those clip ons like some passive 3D brands do. I think it was LG that had the clip ons. I went to one of the shows and there was LG and Samsung right next to each other. LG gave me the clip ons since I had my glasses on but Samsung just stood there and pointed at their shutter glasses like they expect me to wear their glasses on top of mine in public -_-

Arvin, I differ with your point. In as much as I prefer passive 3D, I do believe that there are other people out there who do like the active 3D. It all depends on individual’s perception. But if we just compare both in terms of cost, passive 3D is way better off than active. For instance, when my uncle bought his LG 3D TV, it came with 4 pairs of free passive glasses and the glasses while most active sets only give you two if you're lucky.

I heard passive 3d sets offer clip ons for people with prescribed glasses. If you're interested in buying a 3d tv for yourself, maybe you should look into that.

I almost had a situation like you. I went over to my friends house because he bought a 3d tv. I heard a lot of bad news on the internet, but my friend has prepared one of those clip on glasses for me. He had an LG LM670T. All I had to do was tag it on top of my glasses, it was really nice.
