Because it is seen as unfair to hide your eyes from your opponents.

Seems like a logical reason, which is the exact opposite of most things the NFL seems to do.

If a player goes down and unconscious, with a tinted visor is much harder to see their eyes which is a tell tale first response of an issue.

Medical response is correct. From here: http://operations.nfl.com/football-ops/nfl-rules-enforcement/uniform-inspectors/

If a player suffers from migraines or is sensitive to sunlight, he’ll need a medical exemption to put a tinted visor on his helmet as a replacement for the permitted clear visor. The restriction isn’t arbitrary; at times medical personnel need to see an injured player’s eyes without removing his helmet, and tinted visors interfere with that.

I knew it, I'm a genius. Haha. It would be cool to see players personal take on visor ar though. Norman would have an awesome one I imagine.

If I recall the clear visor Cam wears he had to get a medical prescription for approval to even wear that one.
