Among others, the M1 Rifle and Carbine had the "cup" facing away from the eye.

This eliminates seeing the edges of the hole if your eye is slightly off-center.

Many target sights do have a "Cup" or even a hood facing the rear as an eye shade.
Depends on the manufacturer and how they "see" things.
