Ask the coach, point blank, "Find me the rule where sunglasses are prohibited on the pitcher, and I'll have them removed", until then, he can wear them.

Now, some sunglasses that have a "Mirrored" surface may be distracting to the batter and myself, these I will have changed to a less distracting pair.

Here's another question, and this one is way out there in left field. I'd love to see it happen because it would be hilarious.

If the entire other team were wearing dancing tu tu's and your players couldn't concentrate because they were laughing so hard, would you have the other team change out of their uniforms? According to the rules, all players shall be dressed uniformally. If everyone's wearing a tu tu, that's their uniform for the game.

I've had coaches question my sunglasses as an umpire and I quickly remind them that any such comments put them on a fast track to the parking lot.
