OK Both of you, geesh.. Don't watch glass front TV in a brightly lit
room, glare on a television screen from a bright light can cause
unnecessary strain because the screen will be washed out. The human
eye will naturally squint to try to cut through the glare.
As for a dark room, the pupil is wide open, which means it will allows
for more light to pass through so it can process an image. The
television will be so bright that the eye won't have any defense
against the light and could be damaged.
Could, COULD be damaged. And this is for those of us who have good
eyes. Me personally my perfect vision is 3 inches from my face, with
my glasses on I actually have better than 20/20. I watch my (CRT) TV
with the lights out when I watch a movie, my eyes are already crap I
don't give a crap.
And as for the projector it is a little bit better than your current
CRT because they light is scattered as it reflects off the screen but
you still cause eye strain. If you need glasses to see a movie I say
go dark, if you have perfect vision, take the FAINT chance of having
to wear glasses or contacts and go for the dark... if you can't stand
the "black bars".
Oh and any damage that is done to your eyes from watching too much can
be recovered if you notice early enough that things seem more fuzzy
closer than they did before by simply cutting down on the watching.
And another tip before I shut up. If you want lighting but hate any
light on your TV set, put a soft light behind it.
