Can I use any 3D glasses to view a 3D picture on a 3D TV?

When attempting to purchase additional glasses for your Sony® TV, there are two main things that you need to know:

IMPORTANT: Refer to the manual supplied with the TV for model-specific information. Manuals are posted on your model support page.

• Is my TV a 3D capable TV. 3D capability is not something that you can add to add to an existing non-3D TV.  
• Is the 3D feature on the TV Active or Passive .
  NOTE: Aside from looking in the manual, an easy way to know if your TV requires active or passive 3D glasses is to look at the supplied glasses. If the supplied glasses use a battery, and have an on and off indicator, they are active shutter glasses.
