Well you can still try to keep them open but if you do while sneezing, your eyes would rush out of their place because of the speed of sneezing. I suggest you believe me on this one, but if you want to try, it's all up to you. Tough closing your eyes is a reflex, i don't think you can actually keep them open.

"Some people can sneeze with their eyes open and some people can’t. Sneezing is a reflex and so is closing our eyes. We have no control over whether or not we close our eyes when we sneeze. Some people don’t have reflex, so when they sneeze then their eyes won’t close. Some people try to close their eyes so when they sneeze their eyes won’t pop out. Your eyes don’t really pop out. People without the reflex to sneeze with their eyes open can try to train themselves to sneeze with their eyes open."

yes it is because if u dont then the intraoccular pressure(pressure in the eyes) will increase so much that it will try and push the eyeball out of its socket to make way for the rush of air. on doing so the optic nerve is very likely to get damaged and so to prevent all this it is a innate(inborn) reflex of the body to close our eyes. yet those who posses a loose optic nerve have reported on being able to do so.

I heard that it is true. Apparently it is actually physically impossible to sneeze with your eyes open cause your eyeballs would actually pop out.

Yes because if our eyes are left open, the force can push the eyes to pop from it's socket. Closing our eyes prevent this from happening

Yep! I've seen it and done it. My mother sneezes with her eyes open, especially when she's driving. I've done it... especially when I'm holding a full cup of coffee in my hand.

OMG! people believe anything if you give it to them correctly. I have it on good authority that if you sneeze with your eyes open you poop your pants! Also if you sneeze while picking your nose you can kill yourself with a brain injury.
