What I Found
I tested Apex Icy Blue, Dark Blue, and Transitional lenses in the Oakley Meta glasses to compare the look, tint.
The Oakley Meta glasses are useful enough that the lens choice actually matters. If you wear them outside, in the car, or late in the day, the wrong tint can quickly become annoying.
The Dark Blue lenses look darker from the outside than the Icy Blue lenses, but once I had one of each installed side by side, the actual tint through the glasses looked surprisingly similar. I expected the Dark Blue to feel darker while wearing them, but it did not make a huge difference indoors.
