Shooting someone's eye out seems pretty nasty to me even if you only do it with birdshot. (I'm going to skip over the question of whether birdshot actually bounces off eyes because I'm pretty sure that it shouldn't even if the rules imply it does.)

However, it's not that huge a deal. Yes, lose 4 HP, yes, first aid won't work and it bleeds every 30 seconds. But there's no penalty to the bleeding HT rolls. Which means that unless you have particularly low HT or a bleeding disorder you'll tend to stop bleeding on your own without losing very many HP to it.
