Basically the title! Just wondering if the ID Guard's pink glare affects any view from the wearers perspective.

Ie. does it make anything look pink? does it make the sun/uv rays reflect weirdly into your eyes? headaches?

I have pretty rough photophobia, so I'm choosing zenni because I'm getting a pair of FL-41 glasses, but also need an updated regular pair and Zenni seems to be the only place that offers my ideal frame shape/colour. So, I've been looking into the ID Guard because I do a lot of gig work recording myself for UI/research testing, so it doesn't hurt to have one extra layer of recognition protection.

I'm hesitant though because very post I've seen talking about the pink glare has been a bit confusing - I know people are annoyed of how it makes them look (I honestly couldn't care how it makes me look lol), but I've seen comments here and there that have made me worry that it would just cause weird pink reflections/light glares on the wearer's side. those would give me severe migraines and essentially black out my vision sooo no point in getting ID guard if I can't see lol. If anything, I could get custom clip ons with the yellow tint or go with BlokzMore instead.

TLDR; first two lines of sentences lol

(also this isn't me advertising for them, i just genuinely have rlly bad photophobia and need a proper second opinion from people who dont work for zenni LOL)

Basically the title - I have a rare chronic disease, rare enough that I don't actually have many disability scholarships that I can qualify for (disability scholarships where I'm from tend to be specific to the disease). However, this application requires one reference to write a little letter of recommendation.

It's not something I've ever tried to bring into work, I don't have any professor/teacher connections, etc. I only really have my health professional care team. Yes, previous supervisors can talk about the regular reference stuff, but it has to go a little into my disease as well...

Based on previous documentation (and the nature of doctors), I'm not keen on going to my doctors to ask for this... I do also think that it might fall into the same ethical realm as asking my psychologist?

But yea, that really only leaves my psychologist for a legitimate reference. Considering it's a scholarship application and not a job application, would this be weird...? I don't want to overstep boundaries, ruin our professional relationship (I really benefit from seeing this psychologist and don't want to trial new ones again) nor make my psychologist uncomfortable/put them into some ethical dilemma.

If not... anyone have any suggestions for alternatives? I don't want to use a friend/have them pretend to be a qualified reference as it involves me essentially receiving free money.
