Eyelid Subsurface Scattering and Eyelid Shadow

I notice with my daz characters I get a shadow under the top eyelid. It's most noticeable with subsurface scattering turned on. Where the eyelids seem to glow from the SSS. You can see in my low light example the eyelids glow even where the eyeball and surrounding skin fall into the shadows. I have the SSS set as low as I can at 0.001.
Has anyone else had this issue?
Is there anyway to control the SSS on just the eyelids, with a map or something?

With diffeomorphic you can use the bsdf material option to mimic iray. Or the principled option to get easy materials to customize/fix as needed.
A quick workaround would be to duplicate the face material, then go edit mode with the duplicated material still selected unassign all verts. And reassing all faces for that area. Then either turn off SSS for those faces or go even lower for that area to not completely lose SSS.
If you need more detailed way, I can probably do tomorrow. With pictures or an animated gif. But only if you don't get what I mean.
