No if U try By any Hook And Crook Ur Eyes Will Bulged Out from ur Skull Pressure released from a sneeze is extremely unlikely to cause an eyeball to pop out even if your eyes are open." ... "Although you can focus to keep your eyes open when sneezing, your body's blinking response is likely there to protect itself from germs

[Johannes Julians]

@Celiaaaa When we sneeze, involuntary contractions generated as a reflex throughout the body cause muscles of not only the eyelids, to contract for what's coming, but also the stomach, abdomen and maybe a portion of your upper chest. There, you see! An action potent of strong reflex and reaction causes your eyes to close. If you open your eyes voluntarily during sneezing, then they as much have a very high likelihood of popping out of the cranium. No kidding.

@Celiaaaa Doctors claim it isn't possible to open your eyes when sneezing. Likely has to do with keeping germs and such our of your eyes. That makes some sense, at least.
