Actually got snowblinded the other day, shoveling out from the storm. Wasn't wearing my polarized sunglasses clip and gradually noticed a tint shift towards the blue. Went inside to refresh myself and everything was cast a bright violet color. It faded after a few minutes, but I definitely scorched my corneas a bit.

In all my years of living in New England and seeing snow, skiing, etc, that was a first.
