If you wear polarized sunglasses, which is a must IMO then it's kinda dump to try and take photos with them on.

I'm using prescription polarized sunglasses as I spend most of my time in a mountain or sea environment when outdoors, which is more than a few hours a day, year in year out. The double polarization is the greatest problem and I constantly have to lift the glasses to look directly through the viewfinder. This is one reason why I keep the glasses tethered at all times. Its inconvenient, but for reasons other than photographic I cannot wear standard prescription glasses for any length of time when the sun is fully out. A compromise solution if sunlight is not too intense is to wear a wide-brim soft sunhat with standard glasses instead of sunglasses.
