Claim:
1. A three-dimensional (3D) image display device, comprising: a display panel comprising an upper substrate and a lower substrate, the lower substrate comprising a pixel array area overlapped with the upper substrate and a pad area formed on at least one side of the lower substrate outside the pixel array area, the display panel displaying a left eye image and a right eye image; a patterned retarder comprising retarder patterns configured to apply first and second polarizations to light from the display panel corresponding to the left eye image and the right eye image, respectively; and a first polarizing film attached to the upper substrate between the upper substrate and the patterned retarder, wherein the upper substrate is between the lower substrate and the patterned retarder, wherein the pad area does not overlap the upper substrate and the patterned retarder, wherein a size of the patterned retarder is smaller than that of the lower substrate, and wherein the size of the patterned retarder is larger than that of the upper substrate.
