My husband is blind (like missing optic nerve, completely blind) in one eye. Because of this, he's never been able to see 3D movies. We'd like to mostly avoid rides/shows that require it, does anyone know if there is a list somewhere?
I've googled to no avail!
I believe Flight of Passage is one, obviously Muppet Vision 3D, the film festival at Epcot... is Soarin'? Toy Story Mania?
 
Toy Story, Star Tours, Mickey's Philharmagic, It's Tough to be a Bug. Not Soarin, I believe.
 

Even without vision in one eye, someone can watch the movies in 2D by wearing the glasses. It will eliminate the distortion from the 3D effect, but it will of course appear as a 2D movie. Soarin' does not use glasses. Here are the attractions that do:

MK
Mickey's Philharmagic (polarized)

Epcot
Pixar Short Films Festival (polarized)
*Mission: SPACE - Does not use glasses but does use a 3D screen (think like a Nintendo 3DS) to create a depth efffect. It should look fine though.)

HS
Muppet Vision 3D (polarized)
Star Tours (Dolby)
Toy Story Mania (polarized)

AK
It's Tough to be a Bug (polarized)
Flight of Passage (Dolby)

Again, because of how 3D works, if someone with vision in one eye wears the glasses they will only see that "half" of the projection. It will look flat, but is still quite watchable. I have noted above that some attractions use polarized glasses while some use the Dolby glasses with magenta/cyan lenses, so viewing through one lens will tint the color slightly.

Your list is super helpful, thank you so much!!
You're right about him being able to see in 2D on these things, so we will likely still try to do FOP and Toy Story Mania bc they are such a cool experiences (and the kids will love the Toy Story Mania enough to make up for him not getting the full experience!). Just helpful if we are on the fence deciding between 2 things knowing he will miss out on some of the cool factor so we might as well skip something like the Pixar film festival :)

This board is the best!

To be fair, the Pixar Short Film Festival doesn't have a cool factor anyway. It's not like it's Captain EO! ;)

And, yeah, I wouldn't miss Flight of Passage either way. Without the 3D it'll still be like Soarin' and still be quite a show.
