Nothing new to me there.

I've had cateracts in both eyes probably caused by viewing high energy UV sources through 'UV blocking' glasses, for a relatively short period (several minutes).

As it mentioned somewhere in the linked discussions 99% isn't enough. When working with intense UV-C you need to be very careful of getting the right protection.
