Suggest two things.
Goggles
ShopVac
Wear the goggles at all times when using a diegrinder/dremmel.
Get some 1/8th inch rod and bend it appropriately to hold the tube of the shopvac to the port you are grinding on.
Yes, goggles will keep debris out of your eyes, but the vacuum will keep them off of you completely...i/e off your forehead, which you'll wipe with your hand, then touch your eye...

Safety glasses aren't enough. I still got a few pieces of metal in my eyes even with safety glasses. Goggles are definately the way to go...
