Sunglasses on top of head

What do you do when you see a player step into the box with sunglasses on top of their head (using it to hold their hair back or atop their hat)?

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.

Helmet is usually in the way.

Would it make a difference?

Couldn't it be argued that it is a safety issue? The defender may need them when the sun comes out from behind a cloud? Just kidding. If I'm wearing them why can't the players?

Wear them, yes. But at 9:30 at night to hold your hair back? And it ain't Alaska...

I doubt that you're wearing them on top of your head or to hold your hair back, as stated in the original post!
