I think this is an oversimplification. The cornea differs quite a bit from skin histologically. Even if light does stop at the first layer of the cornea - the question is how? The problem typically found with UV wavelengths is opacification of the cornea/lens (cataracts). I have no idea if this is the case for the specific wavelength in the paper - but it’s definitely worth more discussion
