I like a darkened cabin, but I bring eyeshades so I can sleep regardless.

What is a bit disconcerting is when the sun is at that angle where it is quite piercing, versus just being bright.

In those instances, when you aren't trying to sleep but, rather, trying to read or watch the AVOD, the direct light in your eyes is annoying.
