The conjuctiva is a tissue that lines the insides of your eyelids, and connects to and covers most of the sclera, the white of your eye. You’d have to physically puncture this tissue to get behind the eye. In normal ‘operation’ the most you’re likely to do is get down into the area where it folds, which would cause discomfort.
