I suspect that this is a silly question, but is being able to keep eyes open underwater (without mask of course) a useful or necessary skill for diving safety? I've been trying to do it in the pool and it is not working for more than a few seconds and making my eyes hurt into the bargain. Was even worse in salt water.
I don't have a problem dealing with a flooded mask, but if I lost my mask underwater I wouldn't be able to keep my eyes open to see anything. Don't know how likely a scenario that is.
