Yellow for outdoor if the light is poor,as it enhances the contrast of the sight picture,the greatest contrast the human eye can detect is between yellow and dark blue.
For indoor it really depends on the type of range lighting and the lumen rating at the target and also the firing point,I use a lens with a very slight green tint on my home range indoor,as I find it quite restful during a 60 shot match,all eyes are different though so you would need to experiment with indoor filters
For glare outdoor,try something in the light grey range
