I’m super curious how the concept of sleep masks work with eye avatars.

Would wearing an sleep mask work like blinding yourself does and cut off the connection to The Eye? Would that be a realistic alternative to using an awl? Or would The Eye’s connection be strong enough to compel them to take it off? Or would it depend? Like, Season 1 Jon theoretically could have worn an sleep mask successfully, but Season 4 Jon would have had to have taken it off?

I’m overthinking this probably but it is interesting to think about whether or not a sleep mask would have solved a majority of the series’ problems.
