If I want to wear my sunglasses while I’m watching a movie in the cinema because I have a light-sensitivity condition—because that alters my perception of the film without changing the permanent media storage of the film—am I cheating and subject to copyright infringement action?

Of course, you have to wait until the movie company decides to sell approved sunglasses for an additional free. Or get written approval beforehand
It’s also copyright infringement for your life experiences to influence your understanding of the film in ways not intended by the copyright holder. Especially if you think it was bad.
Anyone you share these unapproved opinions with is a potential sale, adding full ticket price + digital rental to the damages
