Yes, but it's highly technical and it requires supplies and precise instructions.

Supplies: a dark washcloth or two...

Step one... fold washcloth(s) in two.

Step two... place washcloth(s) over lights.

Step three... sleep soundly

Step four... never take some things I say too seriously, but steps 1 through 3 do work.

Haha, surely I have been covering it with something. Just wanted to ask if there is a configuration somewhere.

Nope, there's no way to turn them off.

I use msheda's highly technical solution, too. Dark washcloth...dark sock....

You are supposed to toss a dirty sock over them, if the sock is too stiff and rank, some have been putting Pur-Sleep Essential oil on the sock and found they slept better.
someday science will catch up to what I'm saying...

Again, I tend to sleep with my eyes closed, so this isn't a problem for me.

I was going to try turning the unit over. top side down, but then I got to thinking, that would make the water that leaks out of the HH, leak back into the HH. By morning it would probably be overfull.

So folks, Don't try it. Jim

I hope that dirty sock did not smell, it's a mite close to the air inlet to be one of the Pur-Sleep fragrences!
