Off topic but its probably better for your sleep rhythms to not wear sunglasses during the day. Silver lining and noise
Uh what? Where the heck did you hear it's bad to wear sunglasses during the day?? How would that have an effect on sleep rhythms? Do you think blind people don't sleep, or...?
I dont know 100% its the case and it would probably be fairly minor but its good to get lots of light during the day and naturally pare it back at night. I can't speak to the blind folks stuff, its an interesting point, I wonder if they have some compensatory mechanism that substitutes or affects that.
I'm pretty sure that if you get more light vs less light all other variables being equal, you're probably going to have more energy and be more alert during the day on the balance. Anecdotally or empirically I can attest to this.
