The blinking lights when there is a raid really bothers my eyes. Is there a way to turn them off?

I don't think there's currently a way to do that, though I support the idea of either removing them or being able to turn them off.
There are people who are photosensitive, and something like blinking lights can give them a headache or migraine. Maybe someone could create a plugin or extension that toggles the blinking lights on and off(?)

Usually I just avoid the pages that show the alerts if I can, but it also doesn't bother me like I know it can other people.

Personally, I have a problem with lights when I have a migraine and seeing blinking lights make it so, so much worse. I know it could also bother people who have seizures and things like that, blinking lights can trigger it.

It's kind of a roundabout way, but if you use an adblocker, you can use the element eyedropper tool most use (am speaking of uBlock Origin specifically) and just block that specific image.
I don't really have an easy way of doing much about it at this time. That code is so ancient it's remarkable it even works.
