Bono spotted in New York looking tired without his trademark shades

Bono was spotted in New York without his signature sunglasses earlier this week. U2 front man and his wife Ali were all bundled up from the cold autumn chill on a recent shopping trip in the Big Apple.

Wearing a baseball hat and scarf, dark under eye circles and bags were clearly visible on the 50-year-olds face which is usually covered with a pair of Emporio Armani shades.

He has called his look "part vanity, part privacy and part sensitivity", saying: "I have very sensitive eyes to light. If somebody takes my photograph, I will see the flash for the rest of the day.

"My right eye swells up. I've a blockage there, so that my eyes go red a lot. So it's part vanity, part privacy and part sensitivity."
