The invention provides a method and device for adjusting the depth of three-dimensional content. The method for adjusting the depth of the three-dimensional content is applied to electronic equipment used for displaying the three-dimensional content and comprises the steps that when a depth adjusting trigger signal is received, the depth of the displayed three-dimensional content is detected; an expected depth value is determined according to the depth of the displayed three-dimensional content and operation instructions; the three-dimensional content is displayed according to the determined expected depth value. By the adoption of the method and device for adjusting the depth of the three-dimensional content, the depth of the three-dimensional content can be adjusted accurately, conveniently and fast.
