Effect
In battle
Tinted Lens doubles the power of any moves that the Pokémon uses that are "not very effective" against its targets. If a move is regularly not very effective, and thus normally does half damage, it would therefore do normal damage, while a doubly-resisted move (such as a Bug-type move against the Steel/Flying Skarmory) will do half damage rather than one quarter damage.
Outside of battle
Tinted Lens has no effect outside of battle.
