Why do we close our eyes when we sneeze?

What would happen if we kept them open?

Answer #1

i read that it is possible. it didn’t say anything bad would happen like your eyes won’t pop out lol. but that its subconscious reaction from your brain to prevent germs and debris from getting in your eyes when you sneeze.

Answer #2

I think closing our eyes while sneezing is just a reflex but it is possible to keep your eyes open.

Answer #3

The force causes the eyes to naturally close, it’s just an automatic reaction that the body undergoes.
