Flash-paks work by combining bright light with erratic behavior - which is why flare compensation doesn't let you just simply ignore it. They are glare, yes - but they're not constant glare, or even the sort of sudden intense glare that's a flash grenade. They're a flash grenade now, and now, but not now, and now again, but not now, and now, and etc. This is why flare compensation electronics (and magic) has to strain to keep up - and why stuff that's implanted/innate has better (read: complete) control over handling it, and so gets the better 'compensation' for once.
Sunglasses - straight sunglasses, which are not flare compensation (but which you can certainly buy flare compensation for!!) - would normally apply as per the chart, exchanging one row of glare for one row of light conditions. (IMO, they should only negate Weak Glare, but that's me - because you still really can't look into the sun with sunglasses on.) However, sunglasses aren't going to have any sort of effect on a flash-pak, simply because of the pak's erratic behavior, not to mention 'leakage' around the edge of your sunglasses, which your eyes just aren't equipped to handle.
Thermographic vision - only thermographic vision, using which alone has issues as well, and would apply only to someone with implanted cyber-eyes (and maybe goggles, because glasses and contacts have leakage around the side and are not 'full coverage see only what's on the screen') - will negate a flash-pak - but I'd judge they'd be affected for the action they switch over as their eyes and mind adjust. Trolls, adepts, and those with retinal modifications see multi-spectrum thermographic, meaning they'd get goosed by the flash-pak and can't 'turn off' normal vision. And since at current thermographic is thermographic vision - the thermosense implant / changeling ability isn't out yet - you can't 'just close your eyes and use thermographic'. It's vision; you still need your eyes to see.
Last but not least, ultrasound. With ultrasound, you CAN close your eyes; even if it feeds in through the optic nerve (which for my money it does), it doesn't rely on the ocular structure to do it. Close your eyes, and light/glare conditions - including those generated by flash-paks - just ... go away. Very tempting.
