sunglasses indoors-thoughts?

[BeckyESRN]

We have a student who wears prescription sunglasses everyday. It is causing problems in the classroom now because he can't see when the teachers dim the lights to use the document camera or to show a movie. He will not wear regular glasses and his mother told the teacher that she is "discriminating" against him. There have been worries about cheating also, which is really hard to monitor because you can't see his eyes. These are not a light color lens, these are black lens. I cannot find any medical info. on this being harmful-other than causing some photosensitivity- so I told them that this needs to be a admin. decision. It is a violation of the dress code to wear sunglasses, but since these are prescription, they allowed it. Any thoughts?

Used to be cool but now it's considered shady.
