Minty Fresh Eyeball

Last night I sprayed myself in the eye with toothpaste. How have I managed not to do this for 30 years? It burns. My toothpaste tube is very nearly empty, so I had to work to get any out. I squeezed the tube, looked closely (and with my eyes wide open) and moved the brush to collect the toothpaste. From now on, I'll make this motion the other way. The mirror way, not the face way. Did I mentioned the burning?
