    Unusual visual phenomenon with polarized lenses

    So I purchased and mounted some aftermarket polarized lenses in some sunglasses of mine .. gray/brown base with full reflective blue mirror coating ..

    i noticed when i drive with the sun directly positioned in front of me there is a blueish hue on my black dashboard... when I tilt my head left or right it disappears... when I look move my head left or right it disappears.. when I drive in a different direction where the sun isn’t straight ahead it disappears..

    i also noticeed if I’m walking on black asphalt with the sun directly ahead and I look at the ground there again is a bluish color straight ahead on the ground but as soon as my head deviates away the blueish hue goes away..

    this also happens with some other sunglasses with a rose tint and polarized.. anybody have any ideas?
