SKY is investigating its 3D TV technology after viewers claimed it made them feel sick.

The channel has been available for only six months, but some subscribers said they have been left dizzy and disorientated.

Others complained they suffered from headaches and double vision.

Now Sky has commissioned a special report amid mounting health fears over the 3D experience.

It comes two years after cinema-goers complained of motion sickness and vomiting and headaches after watching blockbuster Avatar – the movie which inspired the push to three-dimensional viewing.

Karen Sparrow, from the UK Association of Optometrists, said: “Even when you stop watching 3D your brain is creating a form of binocular dysphoria, which can last a few seconds but perhaps for longer.

“If the dysphoria lasts for a noticeable period this could lead to the nausea, dizziness and disorientation that the manufacturers have concerns about.”

BSkyB has deals with Hollywood studios including Disney, Universal and Warner Brothers to show their 3D films. But its website has little mention of health risks.

The American Association of Optometrists has found as many as 25% of users report eyestrain, blurred vision, dizziness, headaches or nausea after viewing.

Medical websites have warned people who suffer from epileptic seizures or strokes to seek medical advice before being exposed.

Pregnant women, insomniacs and the elderly have also been advised to avoid it until approval is given.

The fears extend to computer consoles with experts warning against children under six using the new Nintendo 3DS, saying it could damage their sight.
