Whether the object struck by lightning is transparent or not should not make much difference.
It breaks.
it just gets refracted

yes it does

Light does not pass through a glass of milk. The glass is transparent, so the light will be refracted a bit when entering the glass, and again while leaving the glass, but milk itself is opaque. Light would be absorbed in the milk, and converted into heat.

The light that does not cross the boundary is reflected back into the glass. (Or back into the air, if that is where it started.)
.Most of it is absorbed.none is reflected

light passes through glass
Some glass is transparent to visible light.

true
atoms vibrate, causing it to heat up. Making it transparent.
Basically three things can happen to light as it strikes an object. It can be reflected, absorbed, or it can pass through. For simplicity, assume the object is not transparent; in that case, any light that is not reflected is absorbed.
