Good points - I doubt #2, since being able to see clearly is a vital faculty when under attack. It's a good question about sunglasses - I have a pair I wear over/clip on to prescription glasses. In any case, on a sunny summer morning out walking in the open, I'd be wearing sunglasses.
One question I'm curious about is, it appears that the glasses were found by police during an intensive search of the area. It sort of surprises me that they found them - and not some passer-by who turned them into a lost and found. If you're looking for a woman, you'd be able to see from a distance she wasn't in that open area. What lead police to do such an intensive ground search of open fields?
I'm still trying to catch up but the mention of sunglasses made me think of something. Its possible that should wore sunglasses for her walk but had her glasses hooked over her collar. It was also mention it was quite warm and humid. I live in the tropics and I know that quite often I need to stop and defog my glasses. I can't see far in front without my glasses but when it is humid I can see far better with my crappy eyes than I can with fogged up glasses. When going on long walks I eventually get crabby at them fogging up and hook them over my shirt. They may have fallen off and she wouldn't have noticed if she were going at a good pace.
Also, great points about how the glasses could be identified. My husband wears glasses and I see him everyday and I wouldn't be able to recognise his glasses. I can't even recall now if they are blue, black, gold or brown. They are just generic glasses. I might be able to say, those look like ones he would wear, but that's it. The police would have to rely on the many finger prints he leaves all over the lenses.
