Aftermarket IR Filter?

Question: If I have a green 532nm laser without a filter, is there an aftermarket filter which can be placed snugly over the head and aperture of the laser? Like a filter within a rubber or plastic head which can fit snugly over the laser head?

Or a filter inside a custom metal cover with a set-screw to hold it onto the laser head?

If not, and if my laser head has an open-close aperture safety cover, can a round filter be placed inside that cover to act as a filter?

Thank you in advance for your responses.

I don't know of any However if you can get the front cap off I have some IR filters for sale you could always glue inside the cap.

I have access to a 3D printer I could maybe make a cap / ring to hold the filter just give me the dimension of the inside bore of the cap or the outer diameter.
