Ian:
That sucks!  Makes me want to get a bascinet with the segmented style occularum like this...  at least for live steel use. I suppose a very narrow tip and a very lucky shot (or unlucky) could still possibly get through, but I'd like my odds better.

Sir Edward:
Youch! Yes, this is one reason modern fencing masks are still a good idea for most people who get into this stuff. But it's true, if you're trying to be authentic, it's hard to be sure your eyes are safe.

Something that can bridge the gap a little is the fencing helmets from Windrose:

Sir Wolf:

Sir Patrick:
That's what they did on Full Metal Jouster.
