This only applies to items worn on the hands, wrists or arms.

Rule 1.11 (j) only applies to watches, rings, jewelry and other metallic items, other than medical alert jewelry.

If a pitcher were to wear mirrored sunglasses that reflected the sun into the batter/catcher/umpire's eyes, as the plate umpire I would make the kid take them off because it was a safety issue rather than a distraction.
