When you are blind, your eyes turn pale or grey. People who are blind don't want other people to see that so they wear black glasses to cover their eyes, and look more casual
Wow, I am surprised by that "answer": some blind people wear sunglasses because the UV (UltraViolet) radiation from any light, most significantly from the sun, causes intense pain. Notice that they wear those "sunglasses" at night; not because they are "embarrassed" for being blind (sunglasses attract greater attention, do they not?), but because any light hurts them: those blind people are not pretending to be movie stars, but to prevent the pain from any light! And those are not conventional "sunglasses"; the sunglasses of the blind cover each eye in its entirety.

Sme causes of blindness, for example severe injury, can leave the eye looking grotesque or deformed. Many blind people in such unfortunate circumstances wear dark glasses to protect them from ridicule.

Why Some Sightless Individuals Choose to Wear SunglassesMy guess is because it protects their eyes. I think that even though blind people can't see anything and that if they were to look at the sun they would still be affected by it like normal people. AnswerBecause even though they do not see anything, Light still passing through the outer serface of the eyeball, which can cause some eys to hurt. That is how they see colors, Colors let off a sort of light and they can tell the difference in the light.
Many blind people wear sunglasses so that:

1. It tells people they are blind. (So people won't get in the way/ people might help them more so.)

2. It makes them look less "odd" when their eyes aren't focused on something.

Blind people don't necessarily "have" to wear sunglasses, but many prefer too.

Why some people wear glasses?

There are different degrees of "blindness", from being totally blind to being partially blind. One eye may be better than the other. Some people are "blind enough" to be regarded as "legally blind" but can see slight shadow in one or both eyes. Others may have one eye totally blind and the other only partially, while still others can have impaired blindness where they are able to see some light or shadow but there is distortion or double-imaging. Darkened glasses stop the double-light shadow vision. Others must just prefer to wear dark glasses because blind eyes tend to look milky and they may not want to stared out.
