If I asked you why pirates wear a patch you'd most likely say that it's because they lost an eye in a fight with a hook-handed enemy or a lusty encounter gone wrong with a beer wench wielding an infected fingernail right?
WRONG.
According to some random wasted man wearing a fake moustache and yellow jumpsuit at a Whitechapel warehouse party on the weekend, they wear, or more correctly I suppose wore them, so that when they went down below deck (note my pirate lingo) they wouldn't have to wait for their eyes to adjust to the dark, and would be able to see immediately.
Thar ya go!
