The ozone layer is transparent to visible light, but is opaque to high energy ultraviolet light, and therefore it filters out most of the ultraviolet light in sunlight. If this ultraviolet reaches the surface, instead of being filtered out by the ozone layer, it is very damaging to the cornea of the eye, causing cataracts, it also causes excessive sunburning (which can cause skin cancer), and has a variety of other dangerous effects.
