Which is the most reasonable and safest option? Does anyone have suggestions for other measures I could take?

I'd say it depends on how bad your eyesight is uncorrected. Mine is around 20/40 in 1 eye and 20/60 in the other. It's a real pain to wear safety glasses that fit over my regular glasses so I usually remove them when and just wear the safety glasses when I'm in the pit. I can still see well enough to read signs but I certainly wouldn't operate any machinery without them.
I think that the dark sunglasses are more hazardous to wear because while everything may be sharp it may be too dark to safely work on a robot.
