Hello Scott, As has already been said, 3D Glasses certainly would have 'child appeal' and therefore should comply with the Toy Safety Directive and that's your entitlement for CE Marking them. If I were shipping these, I'd also be tempted to include the General Product Safety Directive (2001/95/EC), which although isn't strictly a CE Marking directive, it would look good on the Declaration of Conformity and and should keep the most exuberant customs inspector happy and might prevent questions about why adult glasses are being classed as toys.

I observed a number of 3D passive glasses in traditional black and in different colours on sale in electrical shops. They are affixed with a CE mark. My inquiry indicates that CE mark demonstrates the compliance with Toys Directive 2009/48/EC. It is interesting to me that the glasses are used with electronics products, 3D TVs and on sale in electrical shops. How can it be classified as a toy? I have no idea about non electrical products. Any comments on the product classification? If not a toy, what is the product type should be.
