reflective, irridescent, day-glo colored lenses
I suspect that irisé really means colors that shift with refraction angle, but I can't pull up an adjective for that off the cuff. Anyone?

fluoride glass, 'iridescent', reflective
I think Vera's hit the mark with her second answer --- I believe fluoride glass is commonly used for sunglasses, and 'fluorisé' is certainly a term used for something 'that contains fluoride'
I'm certain 'irisé' does mean 'changing colour with the angle' as Michael says --- like an oil film on water, and of course, many fashionable sunglasses! But I'm afarid I can't think of a better technical term --- maybe the Rayban site would offer something?
And clearly 'miroirant' in the context of sunglasses shoule be 'reflective'

Of course, we\'re all slightly missing the point that the text is talking about \'verres\' in the plural, which of course should be translated as \'lenses\'
