No it doesn't hurt my eyes, as for my vision blurring I even get that on non visual 3D systems.  I think it must be to close to my face or something, not that temporary blurry vision has ever stopped me from playing my games. There is a reason why most games visual 3D games tell you to take a break every hour.

It didn't used to, but now it does after I play it on 3D mode for an hour. You're not actually supposed to play it on 3D for more than an hour at a time, but whatever. I don't use the 3D mode very much anymore.

It does not hurt my eyes, but it annoys after I played it too long (30-60 minutes).
But I know it hurts my sister's eyes.

It's not that it hurt my eyes. In the beginning I just felt uncomfortable using it. I turned on sometimes to see one specific scene or effects. Now, I don't mind playing either when it's on or off.
And I didn't notice anything different in my eyes.

It doesn't, only to the people who don't know how to use it. The instructions say that it has to be around 25 to 35 cm from your face and has to be seen flat (it's almost impossible for two people to see the 3D at the same time). You have to maintain your position for it to work. People who don't know this use it at whatever position they want and are used to play moving the controller when pressing the buttons(...?).

I played on my friend's 3DS, my eyes did hurt, but after a while, I got used to it. The 3D wasn't as "3D" as I expected, though.

Doesn't hurt my eyes at all. Probably because my eyes are already damaged from playing games too much

Ok, apparently I do have a 3DS and it doesn't hurt my eyes. I played a game for the 3DS and it didn't even hurt my eyes.

So apparently, I am fine.

I don't know what happens if you are 6 and under (all I know is that you have to be 7 or older) but it shouldn't hurt your eyes.

It can harm your eyes if you are "under age" for the requirement but if you are older than requirement you should be fine

It hurts my eyes by a little. So most of the time I usually turn the 3d off unless I really need to turn it on. But sometimes it does hurt my eyes and it seems like onions right in front of me sometimes.

The 3DS is more likely to hurt my head than my eyes... though it maybe does a little of both. I know I get headaches from it, so I typically disable the 3D. I've been told that it doesn't hurt if you have it held in the right exact position and I believe that to be BS. I used the special cradle to keep it at the right angle and I still got a headache after only about 10 minutes of playing.

I never really had it hurt my eyes, though after long marathons of playing in 3D, I sometimes see my computer screen or TV in very light 3D. It is not very pronounced, just like at the corner of my eye I see text popping up when certain colors are next to each other, or something that is in front of a screen on TV seems to slightly pop out.

No, I am not on drugs, just on 3D game play.

Now, I don't have one myself, so I haven't played it for very long periods of time, but I haven't had a problem with the 3d, other than the graphics don't look as good that way.

It doesn't mess with my eyes or anything, but after long periods of play, I suffer a little eye-strain, a little more quickly than 2D play.

Well if you happen to own one then you'll probably get used to it after a while, you'll be comfortable using it with or without the 3D on. If you have the 3D effect on, you have to be looking at it in a specific angle so the graphics actually look 3D and not just weird.  However,when you buy one and once you turn it on for the first time, it tells you to read the precautions. You're NOT supposed to be looking at 3D for a long period of time, it damages your eyes. So YES, you might be used to looking at it but it will still naturally damage your eyes. I suggest you play but turn the 3D down, don't put it at full blast.

It's doesn't hurt my eyes, but it makes my head feel funny. I haven't exactly played a full game or anything but I have played a few demos and found I can stand the game a lot better when the 3D is turned off, I get a little dizzy when it is on and my eyes feel like they are heavy if that makes sense.
