"The pictures immediately went viral on Tuesday - French president Emmanuel Macron delivering his big speech at the international leaders' summit in Davos, while wearing a pair of reflective aviator shades. Fashion statement? Trying to look cool and unintimidated by Donald Trump? Hiding a hangover? Speculation abounded, by apparently there is a more prosaic reason - an eye condition. Macron has been pictured wearing shades several times over the past week, including at indoor events"
"He opened a meeting on Monday by saying: "Apologies for the shades, but I have to wear them for a while", adding that he had a "mild eye condition". French media have reported that it is a burst blood vessel in one eye. It's not the first time that Macron's fashion choices have caused comment - despite him rarely straying from the French male politician's 'uniform' of dark suit, white shirt and plain tie."
