No we just have fun with the fact that they are stairing at me! We just
smile and say hi!

But when we "have fun" with it, don't we send the message that the
behavior is okay? I'm not suggesting we become combative or rude, but
acting in a manner that will appear as though being blind is indeed an
oddity and something to be stared at has the potential to tell those
staring that it's perfectly acceptable behavior.
