Can Sneezing Make Your Eye Pop Out?

The video debunks the myth that sneezing with eyes open can cause eyeballs to pop out. While most people reflexively close their eyes when sneezing, some can sneeze with eyes open without harm. Globe luxation, or eyeball popping, is rare and usually linked to medical conditions or trauma. Factors like overactive thyroid, tumors, or shallow eye sockets can increase risk. Trauma, such as car accidents, can also cause it. Some people can voluntarily pop their eyes due to unique anatomy. Generally, popped eyes can be easily repositioned without long-term damage.
