Based on that advice, I do NOT want to know how to get the sting out of the
eyes.

Wear glasses? My kids couldn't stand to chop onions, but I had no
problem. They didn't wear glasses, I did. Do not put your hands
anywhere near your eyes until the hands are clean.

Or maybe it's my head tilt. I saw no reason to hover my face over the
onions while slicing. Standing back a decent distance, but within
arm's reach might be the trick?
