Optically transparent fiber glass cover substrates for electronic displays. The cover substrates include an optically transparent fiberglass composite layer including a fiberglass layer embedded in a matrix material and an optically transparent hard-coat layer bonded to a top surface of the optically transparent fiberglass composite layer. A bottom surface of the optically transparent fiberglass composite layer may define a bottommost exterior surface of a cover substrate. The bottommost exterior surface of a cover substrate may be disposed over a display surface of an electronic display to protect the display surface from damage.

A method of manufacturing an optical fiber includes applying a curable resin composition containing a photopolymerization initiator so that an outer circumference of a glass fiber including a core and a cladding is coated, and forming a coating layer by radiating an ultraviolet ray to the curable resin composition and curing the curable resin composition. Forming the coating layer includes providing two or more non-radiation periods and intermittently radiating the ultraviolet ray three or more times so that a total time of the non-radiation periods is 0.010 seconds or more.
