I believe the answer is:

eyeshades

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'affirmation needed to enter oriental hell with sun screen?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'affirmation needed to enter oriental hell' is the wordplay.
'affirmation' becomes 'yes' (yes is a kind of affirmation).
'needed to enter' is an insertion indicator.
'oriental' becomes 'e'.
'hell' becomes 'hades' (synonyms).
'e'+'hades'='ehades'
'yes' going into 'ehades' is 'EYESHADES'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for eyeshades that I've seen is " protection needed from glare".)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
