    The document provides steps to create an extruded lens cover and apply transparency to it in a SolidWorks part file. It involves creating a sketch on the front plane using a circle from the existing lens cover extrusion, then using that sketch to create a new extruded boss feature for the lens shield. Transparency is then applied to the lens shield using the change transparency tool to control how light passes through the surface.
