2 LIVE POLLS: Characters Who Make These Sunglasses Look Good

In the movie Men in Black (1997), as Agent J completes the transformation from his previous identity, James Darrell Edwards III: J (Will Smith) says to K (Tommy Lee Jones), "You know what the difference is between you and me? I make this look good." [as he places a pair Ray-Ban Predator 2 sunglasses over his eyes.] In doing so, the sunglasses are a plot device that signals the completion of his metamorphosis into becoming a new person. In tribute to over a century of sunglassed looks in film and the opportunity sunglasses provide to be a new person or to refresh the one you already are:  

According to the Cleveland Clinic, those who wear sunglasses year-round can benefit every day. Advantages include: 1) blocking harmful UVA and UVB light, 2) preventing headaches and migraines caused by direct sunlight, 3) reducing eye strain, 4) reducing glare and improving vision, 5) offering protection from wind, dust and debris, 6) helping to prevent eye diseases like cataracts and macular degeneration, and 7) helping to prevent skin cancer and wrinkles from around your eyes among others. The Vision Council of America reminds us that the damage from UVA and UVB radiation is cumulative over a person’s lifetime, so it’s a good idea to teach your children how important it is to wear sunglasses.
