Not protecting eyes from sun can cause cataracts and macular. I wear sunglasses every day unless it is pouring rain and so dark out!
Why not try and protect eyes from things if you can I feel.
When I see friends and family and other people not wearing them I always think they need to.

Always....I have light eyes and they tend to be dry and sesetive. I was told when I was very young to wear sunglasses to protect my eyes. Once I leave the house in daylight, on they go ! Even on rainy and overcast days I have them on. I got DH into the habit..both his Mom ans Gram had macular deg...they were also heavy smokers but I believe protecting the eyes is essential.

I wear prescription sunglasses, all year and every day.

Yes I do, and pretty much all day time hours, rain or shine. Polarized are my preference, and in several different styles.

If I go outside without sunglasses I cannot see a darn thing. LOL!!! My eyes are running so much I just cannot see.
Yes I always wear sunglasses. Even on those cloudy days I wear them which I hate wearing them when the suns not out because it's also harder to see but with my eyes running I don't have a choice. Eye doctor said I have photophobia.

@CherryHugs I am a sunglasses wearer. I have been for the last 30 years at least I am almost 64 years of age. I wear them anytime I am outside or in the car... cloudy days... rainy days snowy days ... of course sunny days.
I have to say though... that even with wearing sunglasses for years and eating a diet rich in antioxidants for the eyes as well...... I still had cataract surgery at age 62 in both eyes. My eyes are very healthy mind you....... but I got cataracts. Good thing is that now after cataract surgery I have better than 20/20 vision where before the surgery I was very very nearsighted!
So, I guess that perhaps wearing Sunglasses does not prevent cataracts.... or a healthy diet either . I suppose it is more genetic perhaps when you get cataracts and not something preventable.
A huge plus is that I do not have any wrinkles around my eyes... and besides wearing sunscreen also for the past 30 plus years.... I think the sunglasses have really detered my getting wrinkles around the eyes. So THAT is a very nice plus about sun glasses!

I do wear them when out walking and also driving. I actually hate sunglasses, they way the lay on my face and ruin my makeup where they touch my nose and they feel heavy. But I cannot stand the glare of a sunny day, I feel I will go blind. This is why I switched to contact lenses. Hate the feel of glasses on my face for long periods of time.

Yes, when I go for walks. Also, use my prescription sunglasses when driving. Been wearing some type of sunglass when driving for many years.
