A device for shielding a user from undesired light includes a flexible arm that can be adjusted to hold different configurations. The device includes at least one fixing assembly with a suction cup for securing the device to a smooth surface. The device also includes at least one shield assembly with a shield member for shielding light. The fixing and shield assemblies are securable to an end of the flexible arm or along the length of the flexible arm. A receptacle interfaces with the fixing assembly and allows the device to be secured to (for example) a sun visor. A user may secure the device to the windshield or dashboard of a vehicle using a fixing assembly. The flexible arm with one or more shielding assemblies may be adjusted/shaped to position shield members, and readjusted/reshaped as undesired light shifts position relative to the user.
