Metal in my eye ranks highly among my worst fears. I had a piece of something fly around my glasses into my eye while cutting a bolt earlier this week. Ran into the house like a flash holding my eye open, straight to the bathroom mirror. It landed right in my tear duct and turned out to just be a fleck of some rust or something that didn't seem like it had any sharp edges. Got it out pretty easily but finished the job with my welding mask.
As for the tool itself, I stay out of the plane of the disc. I've never had a full size wheel come apart on me but I've sent enough dremel discs into low earth orbit to put the fear in me.
