Never been cut, but then again I don't shoot any hard kickers.

Closest I've come to scope eye was with my M700 .270win. one night calling coyotes after dark using a spotlight off of a atv. Had a coyote coming in circling to my left so I had to lay across the seat of the machine and shoot while holding the spotlight in my support hand and resting against the rear rack. I got my glasses crushed against my face, but no blood and I got the coyote too.
