No way! That's just creepy if that was true! And it is impossible to sneeze with your eye open. So it is a myth to sneeze with your eyes open AND to have your eyes pop straight out of you when you sneeze with you eyes open.

they wont you eye lids are for spreading water around your eyes so you eyes don't dry out and if you do sneeze with your eye open your eye sockets will keep it in even if you sneeze with your eye closed

Actually, that is not true at all. Your eyes close naturally when you sneeze simply to keep bacteria from getting in your eyes. A few people can sneeze without closing their eyes, (without them popping out) but the average person naturally closes their eyes while sneezing. Hope this helped! :)

Can... yes, it could happen in some individuals, though if the structures holding your eyes in their sockets are weak enough for this to occur, whether they're open or closed is probably largely irrelevant.

However, the notion that it will happen if you do this is purely an urban legend (it is actually quite difficult to hold your eyes open and sneeze at the same time, so it's not immediately recognizable by most people as the nonsense it truly is).

The natural reflex action that occurs during a sneeze is that your eyelids will close - it's all part of nature. So, no, your eyes will not pop out.

You naturally do it to prevent snot from coming out of your tear ducts. Unless you want snot in your eyes, close them when you sneeze.

MythBusters did a brief investigation of this. Their result was "no"- they had to hold open their eyes, though. There are too many musles, nerves, etc. holding your eyeballs in.

Will your eyes pop out if you sneeze with them open?

Can you die if you sneeze?

The Birmingham Health System states, "If you try to suppress a sneeze, you can rupture blood vessel in your head or neck and die. 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." I learned that if you hold in a sneeze while pinching your nose, while it relieves the pain in your ears, "it briefly blocks the blood flow to your heart". Yes, you can die from sneezing if you hold it in.
