My opinion on this question is that it isn't the actual color of the eyes that gets darker when they get angry, its the "tone" of their eyes. You can describe someone's eyes as dark (like, menacing) without actually being describing the color, if you get what I mean. Like, there is no light in them, because they are thinking dark thoughts.
It might be interesting to go through and see if you can find any instances of Stephenie writing about a non-vamp's eyes looking dark when they are mad or upset. This might help clear up this question, too. But overall, I think she was describing the look Edward was giving, and not the actual color.
