cuz your eyes automatically shut close. same with men. but if you were to hold your eyes open with your fingers you wouldnt sneeze, unless your eyes close.

Coz the pressure the sneeze creates would endanger the setting of your eyes:) but really, its a natural reflex for your own protection. as for before: yes, it may be possible to keep them open meanwhile. it is also possible to blow the pressure out of your ears by holding your nose shut, only it could cause serious hearing loss. it 's just stupid to do it, theres a reason y people work like this.

It is pretty well accepted that no one can sneeze without closing their eyes. That is the way it works.

Naturally, there is a force drived out after sneezing, you have to inhale a bigger amount of air and so exhale just one time = pressure that is equalized by nose, mouth and ears. ... eyes cant bear this pressure, so another natural reflex close some involuntry....

I've heard tell that if you sneezed with your eyes open, they would fly from your head. But, I dunno.
Some peoples sneezes are loud violent forces of nature, while others are tiny little squeeks. Wondering where that pressure goes?

Reflex action to protect your eyes. Stems from the same part of our brains that controls involuntary movements i.e coughing , breathing etc.

because if you did, your eyes would pop out of your head. ...you think I'm joking? because I'm actually not LOL it's true. And plus, it's a natural instinct to close your eyes, as a means of protection or something

Natural reaction. That's just the way it works.

so your eyes don't pop out, and also its a natural reflex.
