Linegear Ruby Clear or Titanium Clear

Yep - 40 % Positive Red is a beauty for sure!

Another awesome option is Violet, BVI & BVI Gradient.

Today there’s also the Blue option and Prizm Grapefruit (?) on the Gascan.
 
Here are some aftermarket ruby clears on a split jacket that I've got. Aftermarket. But I don't know which company. I estimate transmission to be about 75-80% (just going on memory compared to titanium JPPO lenses and the hi index yellow)

Slight bluish tinge. Not as strong as original Oakley ruby lenses.

Very nice lens and looks great from the outside as well from the inside.

Not sure on LG version, but the oakley Ruby clear looks a lot better than it actually performs.

They have this rather unique quirk of projecting a ghost of any shiny reflections or lights that happen to be in your field of view; if there's a light ahead of you there will as though appear to be another light beside it, imagine crossing your eyes it's kind of like that effect but only with lights/reflections off glass. I found this out trying to use a pair for night skiing, turns out they're not great but they do sure turn heads.

Prizm Low Light would probably suit you well, they were marketed to be used for night time stadium games played under those big HPS lights. Other neutral options I guess would be, TI Clear or Light Positive Red. H.I.

In university, I would wear H.I. Persimmon while working on the computer for long stretches, as my eyes would get irritated staring at the screen - now they have a app that allows you tune your monitor's color to be a softer orange that easier on the eyes but at the time that was my solution.

I agree they look beautiful, but it's not something i'd wear very often (if at all). My Splice is mostly a display pair.

Of the few times i've worn it, i haven't gotten a ghost effect.
 
I’ve got a loads of indoor lenses. Ruby Clear is sweet but in my opinion there’s are much more practical options available but it takes a bit of searching and also some custom lens cutting. OEM every time

Prizm Low Light for example or VR50 are great options among others.

Dont forget about Blue
