Trimming Iris Leaves

[megfitz]

I have several Bearded Iris in a border and am thinking that to get sunlight onto the Rhizomes I'd like to trim the leaves to about half their lenght.

   Is this the right thing/ time to do it? 
Thanks for  any advice

(See the references to cutting back the leaves when dividing the plants by the Doddington method and/or the 'Winter preparation' bit).
