Smoked lense VS clear difference?

Hey i notice every time i go to paly paintball is blazing hot out and blinding so very bright out i was wondering what the advantages and disadvantages are in getting a smoked vs clear lense? i have only ever had in my years of playing clear lenses. I play bushball is it harder to see into dark places with a somoked lense?

Smoke lenses are slightly darker, like a very wimpy pair of shades.

if u play in the woods where there is a lot of shade, yellow lenses will help, but if u play at outdoor speedball fields, dark linses will help, i have a lens for my flexes that are mirrored blue and tinted 50% i believe
