Correction: Close Your Eyes
2007-10-30 12:14:22 · update #1
your eyeballs will not pop out of your head if you keep your eyes open when you sneeze! Besides, it's just about impossible to hold your eyelids open while sneezing, anyway. Our eyes snap shut during a sneeze by reflex. Nobody knows for sure just why but you can probably chalk it up to the way you're wired. The nerves that serve the eyes and the nose are closely intertwined. Stimuli to the one often just triggers a response in the other!
