Look for onions that are firm, they don't have any bruises and no black moldy spots on them. Although of course if you have one like that at home, you can peel that off until you get down to the good part. But once you have your onion and you want to cut it, what you want to do is to make sure you have a very sharp knife. The sharper the knife the less you damage the cell walls of the onion and less sulfuric acid is released which is what burns your eyes.
