Actually, the rule of thumb is to align your eyes (straight ahead) to about 3/4 up the height of viewable area of the screen. That is, about 1/4 of the screen is above eye-level, the rest is below and this should apply to any reasonable screen size.
Consider a TV with a resolution of 1920x1080 (16:9 aspect ratio) if you're standing 1 foot away, that's a lot of detail up close. Backing up to 10 feet and those pixels start to blend together in your vision and mind. According to the THX standard, a 50 TV is optimally viewed from 6 to 7 feet away. TV is optimal at almost 8 feet. 70 is recommended at almost 10 feet and 80 and up even further. You start getting any bigger with your TV screen size and you might not have the space for your couch to go back far enough.
