Possible Cover Lens for Sparkfun ToF Sensors

Good morning. I would like to use the sensor (VL53L1X) in an outdoor environment. Therefore would like to cover it with some form of lens.

However all types of plastic and or glass I have tried seem to fail and reflect enough of the ToF laser to mess with operations.

Any ideas?

To give you an idea how difficult this is I can verify the inclusion of a simply microscope slide (1mm) will not work. While the wafer thin microscope slide cover (0.007") does work but provides minimal protection

That look very promising. Many thanks. They refer to a product from Hornix. Does anyone know where I can buy those products?
