The lenses of swim goggles are made of a hard plastic and while most of them are tinted, some are not. If the makers didn't make them light enough so that light could pass through them, the swimmer wouldn't be able to see where he/she was going. Because of this, they make the plastic clear enough so that at least some light penetrates.
