Why only baby shampoo doesn’t hurt your eyes?

Almost every baby shampoo you will find in a store doesn’t hurt your eyes but any other type will. What is the actual reason behind that? Why not make every shampoo safe for our eyes?

The thing that hurts your eyes (as mentioned by u/PierogInTheButt SLS) is strong and cheap/widely available. Making ‘adult’ shampoos not hurt your eyes would make them more expensive and/or not as good (which means you’d need more of it, making it even more expensive). You *can* get eye-safe shampoos for adults, but most people chose the cheaper/better ‘normal’ shampoos, because they’re good at not getting it in their eyes.
