I am not a doctor nor any kind of researcher. Just someone who sneezes when I walk out into the sun. My idea is that when we are exposed to the bright light, we squint our eyes. When this happens it restricts our sinuses. A natural way of clearing our sinuses is a sneeze.
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.
People close one eye in bright sunlight to reduce the amount of light entering their eyes and to improve their vision in the bright conditions. This helps to protect the eye from damage and discomfort caused by excessive light exposure.
To block the light out of their eyes, until they get accustomed to it. But, it isn't instinct to close your eyes in bright light. Muscles around the eye pull it closed to protect the inner areas of the eye.
The characteristic of life demonstrated in squinting in bright light is response to stimuli. Squinting is a reflex action that helps protect the eyes from excessive light and is triggered by the sensory input of bright light.
A bright light that causes you to shut your eyes is called a glare. A glare is harmful in that light enters your eye, but doesn't help you see.
When a bright light, like the sun, makes you sneeze.
A photic sneeze reflex is a condition where exposure to bright light causes an individual to sneeze. It is estimated that around 18-35% of people experience this phenomenon. The exact cause is not fully understood, but it is believed to be due to a miscommunication between the optic nerve and the trigeminal nerve.
Try looking at a bright light or inhaling a strong scent like pepper or essential oils to stimulate the sneeze reflex. Gently rubbing the tip of your nose or drinking a carbonated beverage may also help trigger a sneeze.
1/4 of the population has photic sneeze reflex. It just so happens that I have it too. It is when you look into a bright light and sneeze. I usually sneeze twice when it happens but it's probably different for other people. My grandfather has it so I am wondering if it runs through the family. When photic sneeze reflex occurs, you close your eyes while sneezing which may result in having car or plane accidents if you are the driver. I suggest you wear sunglasses. This probably won't help though, it doesn't for me. Reeze
The photic sneeze reflex, commonly known as sun sneezing, is triggered by exposure to bright light, usually sunlight. It is a genetic trait that causes some individuals to sneeze when they suddenly move from a dark environment into a bright one.
It happens so to protect our eyes from the bright light.When the harmful light rays hit the retina,the brain forces us to shut our eyes by making us sneeze.
Bright lights! Ever wak out into the sun and sneeze, it's a natural reaction to the light. Other than that maybe snorting/sniffing pepper.
Yeah, that happens to me sometimes, and it feels terrible. When I get that, I look at a bright light, and I'm almost always able to sneeze afterwards.
Anything that irritates the inside of your nose can make you sneeze. It's usually things like dust, dirt, pepper, hair, lint, or some other kind of fine powder. Some people also have allergies to things like pollen, and some people will sneeze if they look at a bright light, or pluck their eyebrows.
If you want to sneeze on purpose than you get a pepper shaker and stick the pepper on/in your nose or/and you show your eyes to a light source and then your posiblity to sneeze is 73% out of 100%
yes, they do. Have you noticed that when your trying to sneeze, and it wont come up, that if you look at a bright light, you sneeze? Wierd, I know, but it's true!
Yes, some people may sneeze when walking out of a dark room into bright light, a phenomenon known as "photic sneeze reflex." This reflex occurs in a small percentage of the population and is thought to be caused by the overstimulation of the optic nerve, which can inadvertently trigger the sneeze response. However, not everyone experiences this reaction, and it is not directly related to sneezing in general.
