Stifling a sneeze may push air into the rear of the ear, and temporarily overpressurize the nasal cavity. Normally there is no ill effect. Rarely, however, this can force nasal fluid up the lacrimal ducts into the eyes, with the possibility of bacterial involvement such as conjunctivitis.

If you keep your eyes open by force (while you sneeze), they will pop out. Suppressing a sneeze can be harmful, particularly to your ears."

Yes, you can die from sneezing if you hold it in.
