We know there are no LED on the sides so the light is bouncing out from the side surface of the glass and bouncing back. Perhaps the glass and the LCD under it not sealed properly at those spots. Clearly a physical issue.
It's like a scratch on the surface. If you've ever seen a scratch on an E-reader lightguide, (there are some great pics of the first generation Nook Glo, that led to the infamous key drop test.). It looks to me like th side edges of the Clara are not finished properly, so they are acting like a scratch, as far as light glaring out.

*Edit* I think Davidfor has a better idea of what's going on.
