Gravastar models have recently been proposed as an alternative to black holes, mainly to avoid the problematic issues associated with event horizons and singularities. Recently, in [D. J. Cirilo-Lombardo and C. D. Vigh, Int. J. Mod. Phys. D 28 (2019) 1950108], a regular variety of gravastar models within the context of Einstein?Born?Infeld (EBI) nonlinear electrodynamics were built. These original models are truly regular in the sense that both the metric and its derivatives are continuous throughout spacetime, contrary to other cases in the literature where matching conditions are necessary in the interior and exterior regions of the event horizon. In this work, in the same theoretical context from [D. J. Cirilo-Lombardo and C. D. Vigh, Int. J. Mod. Phys. D 28 (2019) 1950108], we study some optical phenomena, such as the weak gravitational lens for the case of the magnetized plasma and the influence of working with a nonlinear field of BI in observables such as the Einstein ring or the total delay time. These important issues allow us to compare the results obtained in the context of these new static Born?Infeld gravastars with the standard linear ones (e.g. Reissner?Nordstr¨om).
