No, because it is an involuntary action, the body counters with the involuntary action of blinking at the same time to protect them from any matter discharged from the sneeze.

I watched Any Given Sunday (an american football film) at the weekend and a guy's eye got squeezed out in a scrum thing there so I expect it is quite possible for your eye to pop out with the force of a sneeze!

Scientifically it is not possible. Test have been done and the answer is No it is not possible, because, like a lot of people joke about, it is true that your eyes might get affected. though i have never seen some ones eyes pop out I would rather not try it.

Depending on how strong the sneeze is I find that I have sneezed when my eyes were open.

To keep your eyes open when you squeeze?... What your eyes? Not sure on that one. Anything else. A possibility!

rYes, I can. Only a little slit stays open though. Not proper;y wide open. And no, your eyes don't pop out. Mine are still nice and secure.

Not naturally, but if you were to superglue somebody's eyes open, or cut their eyelids off with scissors, they wouldn't be able to close them...

I dont think it is. your eyes would pop out of their sockets i think.
