I agree you don't burn your eyes that bad with one flash something else caused it. Many time if your doing a out of position weld it's possible to get burnt by your head position , the light comes under your hood , especially with short style hood that dosent flip down as far, also sometimes the hood may not flip all the way down exposing neck and chin, also I've always heard colored eyes like green and blue burn easier than dark brown eyes. I had an uncle that welded with no hood he would turn his head with the initial flash and then slowly look into the weld. I would never try that but he died with his eyesight in his 80s
