Hey there, if you still have a pair of the RealD 3D glasses (http://celluloidjunkie.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/reald-3d-glasses.jpg) that you get at the theatre when you go to see a movie in 3D (got mine when I saw Up in 3D) put them on and go look in the mirror (with decent lighting... go in your bathroom lol)

The lenses are polarized differently between the two lenses and so it causes your glasses to look funny in a mirror.

You should see the lenses flickering and such if you have both eyes open, but if you close one then the lense you look through is dark, wheras the other one is clear and vise versa.

If you are looking through the glasses with both eyes open and you see one lense darker than the other (just as dark as if you were to close one eye and look) that means one of your eyes is a lot stronger than the other and you might have a slight lazy eye.

I posted this in tech 'cause it's kinda about a gadget... but yar... move it to OT if you think it fits there better.

Cool, I just looked in the mirror with these and confirmed how terrible I look.

And these hurt my eyes.

Put them in front of your monitor.
Tilt them clock wise and counter clock wise and they turn clear and dark.

Then turn it the other way and it turns red and blue.
