2 as a child, both lost to time. 4 as an adult, but they are all prescription so I keep track of them and treat them well. 1 of the 4 is so old and banged up it sits in a drawer as a backup, the rest get used to varying degrees.

I have 5 pairs of Oakley square wire sunglasses that I’ve owned for almost 3 decades. Bought most of them with my first paycheck. I just replace the ear socks and nose pieces, and one pair has replacement lenses. I have never owned any other pairs.
380
3 in the last 10 years. before that I don't remember
Four?
I buy them in 3 packs on Amazon. $9.95 and it's always in my buy it again list
Transition lenses, baybeeee
I'm pretty sure I'm in my fourth pair now.
I've never lost a single pair. The ones I use currently are over 15 years old. I can only remember owning 4 different pairs but there are probably few more that I had in my childhood but no longer remember.
At least 25. I've lost 2 or 3 in rivers while kayaking. Others have broken or gotten lost in other ways.
I go for cheap polarized glasses so it's not a big loss but still annoying.
If I had to guess maybe around 5 pairs of sunglasses, give or take. I own a pretty reliable pair of sunglasses right now that I have had for over a year. These are high quality polarized sunglasses too, maybe a little under a hundred dollars. I kinda wish I got them sooner because I haven't lost them yet surprisingly.
Three that I recall. First pair was in my early twenties, some weird blue bug eye mirror things that I thought made me look cool (they didn’t). Second was a pair of Fossil sunglasses in this cool gunmetal color/material with prescription lenses, acquired shortly after the bug sunglasses. Those lasted me for years. Current pair are Raybans with prescription lenses. They’ve lasted quite a few years as well.
I wear normal glasses as well and keep my sunglasses in a case. I’ve never sat on them.
0 unless you count transition lenses. 4 pairs if you do. I don't particularly like them, but I dislike them less than having the sun in my eyes.
0, I just wear a hat. Wearing sunglasses makes it look like you're trying too hard to look cool.
