Hi.

Have you tried meddling with the graphics in EVE's settings?

Try changing "Shader Quality" to Low, that might help.

Hmm, it's possible this has something to do with the ATI drivers in Lion, we have seen some strange coloring on nVidia cards.

Have you noticed if this happens after you've been running other games or graphically intensive programs?
Also, does this happen after a reboot or when you've had the computer running for a long time?

If the problem continues after today's patch please file a bug report on this so the developers can dig into the problem and hopefully find the exact cause of this. Sadly we have not heard of any workaround for this issue of yours.
