Keep in mind, though, that the group that did complete the transformation into Fel-Elves were the hardcore elite of Kael'thas' group, who had likely been absorbing an immense amount of demonic energy over that course of time.

Comparitively, most of the Silvermoon Blood Elves likely were not exposed to nearly as much energy, both for lack of the resources Kael's core group had available, as well as the Scryers probably advocating some restraint once it was discovered what was really going on (while that's a pure guess on my part, it would make sense to me, at least).

The eye color change is a fairly minor physical change, and I doubt that most playable Blood Elves would have been exposed to enough fel energy to change them any more than that, and certainly not enough to count them as a different race altogether.
