I bet you have hurt much about Photic Sneeze Reflex. That’s when the bright lights trigger a sneeze. My 4 year almost every time we walks outside into the bright light and certain flourcent lights will cause him to sneeze a few time.
It’s always cute when he does because you can seen the reaction about to happen as his eyes and brain send messages that it’s too bright. Then a sneeze happens.

That definitely happens to me every time I walk outside! If the sun is shining, it's 100% guaranteed that I will sneeze a couple of times. I didn't know it had a name and was an actual thing!
