Sunglasses

Anyone else wear sunglasses all the time?

I do it not only because macular degeneration runs in the family (I always wear them when it's light out and I'm driving, working, etc for protection) but also because they hide my horrible eye contact.

Due to my love of Depeche Mode, a lot of people just think I'm trying to imitate them. I also had a friend once who saw me without sunglasses on and didn't recognize who I was at first.

Yeah I love sunglasses. I'm a bit sensistive to bright lights, they are bliss to wear.

I can't stand wearing any kind of glasses. I had to get contacts for that reason. And also, I don't like the dark ugly look it gives the world.

UGH lights drive me insane! But I keep breaking them, I need a new pair.

I wear sunglasses at least half the time I'm outside, if not most of the time. It's weird since indoor lighting doesn't bother me at all, but as soon as I'm out in the sun, I feel like I'm going to go blind! lol

Nah, the sensation of something on my face is worst than experiencing a possible migraine from the light; I'm sensitive to sunlight. I'm supposed to wear glasses, which I have, but I cannot wear them.

I cannot wear a watch for the same reason.

I wear sunglasses in class, and always when I'm outside. Did you know an overcast day is brighter than a fully-lit room?

I am a little afraid my classmates think I'm on drugs or something absurd like that, but no one has yet dared to ask. I have received some confused looks, but that's not so bad. I would rather look crazy than be crazy any day. Artificial lighting is more than utterly execrable to me, it is painful.

I wear Irlens Tinted lenses ALL the time except when I am sleeping.

I can't wear sunglasses because of the feeling on my ears. The light doesn't bother me unless I'm driving in the setting sun. I also don't like the sensation of having altered eyesight.
My husband wears them all the time and only takes them off inside because I ask him too.

I've got those ones that you can fit over your glasses. Cataracts run in my family. My mother had both her eyes worked on before she was 56. Eep!

Sunglasses make me dizzy.

I wear slightly tinted glasses (no real sunglasses just somewhat darker than normal ones) because I am very sensitive to light.

Just when I drive.

I wear glasses all the time. My lens in my eye glasses are transitions. They get darker when I go outside in the sun. I've been wearing transitions since 1996. I like them. It's easier instead of having a separate pair of sun glasses.

I wear sunglasses all the time (except at work or when I'm speaking to someone directly) because I've had staring problems. I find they take the edge off.
