Guinea pigs are native to South America and so can survive heat. But for tame guinea pigs it's best to make sure that you have an indoor cage away from direct sunlight, with a shady spot and somewhere dark to hide. If you have a run, don't put them out in the middle of the day because they will overheat. Try shady spots, putting a cover over the run or waiting for a breeze.

No - they have extremely bad eyesight and would cope with extended darkness very well.

No they don't. Guinea pigs never shut their eyes for longer than 5 minutes at a time but they do sleep and it really doesn't depend on how light or dark it is.
