Ah that explains it clearly. You show the original design, mine looks a bit different: https://imgur.com/a/AJmLLAf
I'll try to extend the cover even more to eliminate the gap completely.
Thanks for the feedback!

I've done just over sixty of them so far, on an Ender 3. Regarding the small gap problem, here are some images:

Thanks Craig for commenting!
I see what you mean with small gaps, I suppose my design is not great in that regard due to the clip/hook feature to attach the parts. But I'm not sure exactly where you propose I add the chamfer? If you explain a bit more I will absolutely try to add that.
I assumed they would submerge the whole visor in disinfectant, since the 3d printed part is porous in nature anyway, so there is lots of gaps you cannot reach by wiping with a cloth or something.
If anyone successfully printed this, please let me know, thanks!

One suggestion, hospitals have commented on another design that. I have been involved with that small gaps (such as lettering, etc) can make sterilising the shield more difficult. putting a rounded chamfer in the tiny inside gap between the temple and the forehead brace would probably be a good idea
