No lights are required for a visual approach or a CAT I approach since either can be performed in day VMC. The requirement for any lights only kicks in at night or in reduced visibility.

The lights don't get turned on at my base airport just because a biz jet on an IFR flight plan makes a visual approach in the middle of the day.
