Why pirates wore an eye patch? Simple!
-

Black eye patch was used by the pirates to quickly get used to the change of lighting. In fact, not only pirates wore such armbands. Any sailor, who had often to go into the hold, wore an eye patch. The reason was that the ocean lit by sunlight, blinded eyes, but the hold was very dark. To avoid wasting time on addictive eyes to the change of lighting, one eye the sailors were kept in constant darkness and going down into the hold, opened it and immediately saw well. That's the whole focus.
