Always? Without exception?
I think so, yes. That's the point of the POE this year. Doesn't matter if the player has the ball or not. You hold your hand in front of the eyes of an opponent and it's a T.

I guess you're refering to a "hand in the face" of the shooter. But in this case, you're not really keeping your hand near his/her eyes. You're just putting up a hand briefly and then removing it. Not really posing a danger to the player's eyes.
