Mythbuaters did a segment on it and Adam Savage forced his eyes open while sneezing and his eyes are perfectly fine because of it. https://mythresults.com/episode84#:~:text=If%20you%20sneeze%20with%20your,fly%20out%20from%20the%20force.&text=It%20would%20be%20impossible%20for,the%20eye%20inside%20the%20socket.

You’d sneeze but that’s about it. It’s just a reflex to close your eyes when sneezing. There has been no evidence found to support the saying that your eyes will pop out if you sneeze with your eyes open.
