This question is stinkier than cottage cheese, but I'll answer it. It's because sneezing without closing your eyes is impossible because if you don't close your eyes when you sneeze, the tears keeping your eyes wet may fall out, your eyes may be dry, and something drastic will happen to your vision, FYI, for your information, yeah, I said all that.

if you kept your eyes open while sneezing the pressure would cause your eyes to pop out of their sockets so you keep your eyes closed

Can you sneeze and not blink?

The fact is you can go search every where and ask any one but blinking your eyes while you sneeze is a natural body reaction. When you see a bright light you sneeze and your eyes close so that they can shut longer than when you blink so you won't hurt your eyes . As much as you try not to blink you cant because when you sneeze your entire body shuts down for that time so your eyes close as well. Another reason why you naturally blink when you sneeze is that if you did not blink while sneezing, your eyes would pop out.
