I think what you are referring to is the fact that the diopter will in fact act like a magnifying glass and burn your LCD screen.

I had it happen with a Zacuto eyepiece on my Canon 60D. This occurred even during non direct sun light, Hence the black cap Zacuto provides when your eyeball is not on the eyepiece.

I would suggest going to the Zacuto website and purchase their red eyepiece chamois. It makes for a nice comfortable fit for your eye instead of the rubber cup. Best $5.00 bucks you can spent.

I hate to sound low tech Matthew, but I use baby socks for GoPro Covers (White for HD1, Blue for HD2's) I just stuck one of them over the eyepiece.

LoL. Low tech shows you have the ability to use your brain instead of your wallet to solve a simple problem.That is the hallmark of a true artist!
