The H.I. Blue lense was a yellow lense with a blue iridium coating. The new H.I. Yellow lense doesn't have the blue iridium coating.

H.I. Blue, i've never had anything better. Though it sounds like H.I. yellow is they're latest improvement.

that is all I use - HI Blue. I still think it is better than the HI yellow, but I guess I am wrong. Anyway, I hoard hi blue lens like Vicious does with bindings. They rock

The high intensity lenses are dope but if the sun peaks out then you are squinting all day. I have two intensity lense, a persimmion, and two iridium (black and fire) I would say that I actually use the persimmion(orange) or black iridium the most and Bridger has flat light. The fire iridium is also tough it is so dark.

I rock the black iridium, and it's sick on sunny days, but in flat light it can be sketchy.

The black can be dark but I would rather have it that way than have my cheeks all sore from squinting for eight hours. On TGR there was a thread about best oakley lenses and the consensus was the VR28 because it is the best for flat and bright.
