My wife had both eyes done over the past year. I would guess that her new lenses did not have UV protection, because she has a most interesting side effect.
Basically, certain glass will (to her) essentially fluoresce in sunlight, so to her, it looks bright, bright purple. The glass in question looks like a slight, smoky grey to me, as does the glass vase at home with the same effect. I'd have to look for the link, but essentially, the new lenses filter less UV than the natural ones, and she's got a bit of sensitivity into that range of the spectrum.
Similarly, a carved item made from yooperlite has the crystals showing orange to her in sunlight, where the rest of us need to hit it with a UV flashlight.
