I used to work in the restaurant industry as a cook and trainer. I too have burned my eyes from putting in contacts with residual pepper oils on them. I learned a neat trick on how to get rid of the pepper oils from your hands. If you have access to anything made of stainless steel like a sink or faucet, while your are washing your hands, lather them up really good with soap and then rub your hands over the stainless steel. This reaction will eliminate most of the leftover pepper oils. FWIW, there are some restaurant supply stores that carry stainless steel bars for this purpose as well as the removal of onion and garlic smells from your hands.
