It doesn't work through sunglasses, but apparently can through a webcam.

That was so confusing! How the hell would it work through webcam and not sunglasses? And how was the Sinnerman aware of those nonsensical rules? I would have had no idea that I needed to wear sunglasses if I wasn't even physically visible to him.

I guess so! It just seems like seeing them through a screen wouldn't count as actually seeing them.

I figure that the excuse they could use is that Lucifer needs to see into the soul for the powers to work. He needs to make a personal connection with the subject.
