I just bought the Bell M4 Pro the eyeport is extra large for those w/ glasses or those who simly prefer it. The peripheral vision is great.

Why not?
I'm not sure but I don't think I've ever seen an open wheel Pro driver wear sunglasses (as the photo of Bourdais shows).

I meant that I wouldn't use sunglasses with no visor in an open car.

FWIW - You should also check out the Impact helmets. I replaced my Bell with one, might not be as well built as te Bell, but th eyeport allows me to put my glasses on easily, the Bell required me to tilt the helmet up onto my forehead to get them on.
The Impact is also much lighter.
