* Technology of 3D Display
* Quality of 3D Content
* Eye care for the high tech viewer
* Optometric Vision Therapy
* 3D Displays and Vision Development
* 3D Displays and Public Health
* 3D Displays and Classroom Learning
* High-Tech Glasses and Vision Performance
Abstract Submission:
* Deadline: March 1st, 2012
* Submissions must include an abstract of no more than 300 words. Papers for presentation will be selected by March 15 and authors notified shortly thereafter.
* Please email your abstract to Dr. Yu-Chi Tai (ytai at pacificu.edu<mailto:ytai at pacificu.edu>).
* Notification of abstract acceptance will be on March 15th, 2012.
