Is it douchey to wear shades inside, even if you’re only going to be in for a few minutes?

    On.

    I’m blind as hell without my glasses and I never remember to bring my extra pair so if I’m wearing my sunglasses they stay on no matter what. If it was only going to be a few minutes I wouldn’t swap even if I had my normal pair.

    I never understood the “sunglasses indoors in douchey” thing anyway.

      I don’t get it either. If people wear sunglasses, whether inside or outside, they chose to wear them for a reason. Even if the reason is just “forgot to take them off”. No one’s deliberately wearing sunglasses to be rude to you…

    I haven prescription sunglasses. Generally I don’t wear them inside, occasionally I’ll forget that I have them until after I’m in the store though. My eyesight without glasses is terrible so I leave them on. Sorry if I look like an asshole but I would have trouble navigating my way and finding what I need without them.

      Transition lenses are great. Try them for your next pair. They do lag a few seconds transitioning back to transparent when going indoors.

          They will also go dark when it’s overcast outside because they react to UV and not visible light. So your glasses will get dark when it’s already cloudy, which is not great
