Sunglasses reduce the effects of jet lag
A study in Edinburgh Sleep Centre found that avoiding light can fool our biological clock which can help to reduce jet lag. So wear sunglasses to reduce the exposure to light:
… Dr Chris Idzikowski, director of The Edinburgh Sleep Centre, said that without using sunglasses it took a day to recover for every hour of time difference travelled westwards.
…
“When passengers are travelling west it’s like a long day for the biological clock but when flying east, the clock tries to go into reverse which is obviously harder.”…

I use hookers to keep me awake, bourbon to put me to sleep and I wake up when the hookers start asking for their money.
