Anyone else with 1 eye only? (3D related)

Yeah don't worry, this iteration of 3D will die long before you have to worry about only having one eye being a problem whilst viewing it.
 
If for any reason I lost an eye, I would totally have it replaced with a red LED in a silver case.
 
Surely having only 1 eye makes no difference? Doesn't having just one eye mean you have no depth perception?

Would that not just mean that when you see a 3D movie you just can't tell "how far away" something is?

I believe that 3D films work on stereography, so you'll see the screen as two images superimposed and illegible. Wear the specs though, as already mentioned further up and you'll see it as a single image. Colours may be limited though depending on what colour the specs lenses are.

If someone with no vision in one eye "can not tell how far away something is" surely they are seeing in 2D, making the 3D part of the movie pointless to them.
 
I suppose he could sit there with his one good eye and his stereoscopic polarising glasses on... But that would seem a little bit absurd.

If his friends want to see it in 3d.

Wearing glasses would only one eye would see it in 2d. But how much detail would be lost, how about darkness as 3rd fairly dark anyway.

Would it? Each eye sees the same level of brightness, close one of your eyes now and your perception with just one eye isn't any dimmer.

you are only receiving one of the two images as the glasses filters out the other, so that's part of the detail and light level?

That's what I mean. If all films will only be available in 3D, just put the specs on and you'll see it in 2D anyway. Just means 3D tv is of no benefit to those with only one eye over just regular 2D tv.

right?

Yeah, that's why it's dimmer with the glasses on than off, but I don't see why it would be dimmer with just one eye with the glasses on than with two eyes with the glasses on.

The glasses are polarising, and each lens is designed so that it doesn't let in all the light from the screen. That's how the 3D works - each eye only sees part of the image on the screen.
