I ride with a cap every time I ride, I find that when I don’t it’s absurdly bright. I just got used to the shade, and I rode with regular glasses on about 9/10 of my rides so it helps.

I think you should go talk to other shops, and talk about what size you can fit. I'm 6'5" but I ride a 58cm. You'll have a range that you can fit on, Mine is 58-63, depending on geometry.
