Why would someone wear sunglasses at night?
For asthetic reasons. Even though it's impractical, they think they look better with them then withiout them.

That`s why most people wear them during the day too.
I'm in the minority because I wear them to protect my eyes and to reduce squinting.
what about those glasses that become sort of like sunglasses when hit by light or something? what type of lenses do you call those and does anyone have experience with them?
Photocromatic. I like them for driving, especially if it is somewhat overcast and the sun is going behind clouds and then coming back out. Also, they are typically quite good on hazy or overcast days when there is still a glare - plus, if you are outside on such days, the UV rays still come through the clouds, and it is nice to be able to protect your eyes without having to wear sunglasses that are too dark.

Wearing sunglasses at night= Giant tool/ douchebag
+1 On the photocromatic. I just bought a pair of Oliver Peoples Benedict aviators w/ silver titanium frame and blue photocromatic lenses. The lenses are great b/c they're light enough indoors and dark enough outdoors to keep on. Plus, the titanium frames are easier to wear, unlike heavier frames. That being said, I don't wear sunglasses at night...although these would be perfect for that.
When I first saw your thread title I thought this was about clear fames on sunglasses. I really like that retro look, clear frames and dark green lenses. It has a real post war look.
Btw, where did you get the blue photochromatic lenses from?
