How are blue and pink iridium lenses for night?

Are oakley's pink iridium lenses mirrored?

• I know the fire iridium lenses are mirrored and look wicked sweet, but do the pink iridium also look that cool?

• Answer:

  Anything with iridium in the name technically has some degree of mirror effect. There are sometimes lenses like the blue iridium where the light transmission level is higher and people can readily see your eyes. The pink iridium aren't super common, and I believe are primarily in the snow goggles. The fact they're sealed against someone's face would probably facilitate the mirroring effect (since they wouldn't allow light to come through the lens from the face side). At least in the snow goggles, the fire iridium look to have light transmission of 16%. The pink iridium have light transmission of 57% -- that would make them more of a lesser flat light lens, and they'd be fairly weak as "sunglasses" go. Though there would be some degree of mirroring, I'd expect it likely that others can easily see your eyes with the pink. And even if they can't, they wouldn't be anywhere near as flashy or something like the fire. The fire iridium are relatively unique.
