    It's very possible that you need to leave the sight glass flashing & add a liquid/suction heat exchanger near the TEV.
    That may not be such a good idea, a liquid to suction HX robs Pete to pay Paul and brings nothing to the big picture, why try to re-invent the wheel? having bubbles in the sigh glass is not a good thing, charge it till it clears and then some.
