They have invented a lens that protects from laser rays. It is as light as any lens in the glasses, but reflects 99.95% of the 1,000 watt laser beam. The image shows a laser beam that is not usually seen.

The lens glass consists of about thirty layers of different materials. It consists of quartz and titanium oxide and has been manufactured with an accuracy of two million millimeters. The glass layers have been made according to the wavelength of the laser beam.

The German house Iéna has manufactured this lens and claims that it can be done against any type of laser beams. This can therefore be the protection against the military laser rifle that dazzles the enemy.
