Which organization are you in and what case book are you using? (From my perspective, I cannot find the word "glasses" or "sunglasses" anywhere in the LL case book)

You would actually require a player to remove his glasses and play with impaired vision? Do you want to rethink that perhaps?

Don't know about other organizations, but let me quote the LL safety code.

"Parents of players wearing glasses should be encouraged to provide 'Safety Glasses.'"

Note the lack of a requirement.

This line is separate form the line about ". . . metallic items" so I believe glasses are not intended to be included in that rule. And it isn't about "flashing items" - it is about injury prevention.
