Turning the UnicornHAT round 'pixels' into square ones

Hey all, I'm brand new to this whole 'maker' scene (coming from a coding background), so apologies if I'm saying anything dumb.

I have a UnicornHAT, which I'm really enjoying playing with, but for the project I want to use it for, the round 'pixels' that it uses aren't going to work - I'd like them to be square. I'm also keen on them being diffused, so I'm able to look at them without getting blinded.

So, what I was wondering is if it would be possible to create some type of clear plastic, uumm, converter (????) for each pixel? That is, a tiny bit of clear/frosted plastic, which is round on the bottom, but square on the top, which could be placed on the individual LEDs, to transform their shape into a square.

If something like this is possible, how would I go about making it? Or, indeed, having it made?

Thank you.
