I think it’s also good to remember our sinuses and such connect with our eyes. So you’re ensuring you don’t just push whatever somewhere else, but flush that as well.

Idea is to minimize potential damage as much as possible, and yeah the literal eye is the obvious first and “most important” thing you think of in the moment, but it’s not the only thing at risk.
