I cut Chews face last week... I did cut the hair by his eyes, He moved like crazy and I just held him by his back of his neck and I wiped the scissors on his nose while they were closed with the point away from his eyes... after a while he closed his eyes and held still and let me cut the eye hair! It was a major break through! THis is the same dog that had three groomers old him down to trim his nails!!!! Here's his pic of the hair cut!
