ive got a blue lens on my profiler, very good for keeping bright light out of your eyes, but atm id use a clear lens seeing as there isnt much sunlight to worry about :p bloody cloudy winter weather!

you dont actually say what ur usin it for, normal day to day or summer use only, ive got blue lenses on my profilers and i use them all the time, got clear but cant be arsed to change them :)
they work fine for me and there very useful for summer.

not sure if the lenses for other masks are darker/lighter than profiler ones so maybe the other guys cud comment on that.

lense

blue lenses are good for glare tinted blue lenses obviously act like sunglasses (and make you look cool) clear lenses are obvious yellow and orange lenses are good in lower light conditions eg in the winter in the woods as they amplify the light that is available hence why you see so many scenario players with yellow/orange lenses

so high light conditions glare/high sunlight : tinted or fade lense
normal light to low light / clear lense to orange to yellow

hope this helps

the swimming goggles are coloured blue the lenses i think you will find are tinted blue and that can get damaged/scratched.
