    Yep, it could cause that in special cases. You always close your eyes when you are sneezing. It is a good way to protect the eyes and easy to sneeze. However, frequent and violent sneezing could rupture a tiny blood vessel in the eye, and the blood would be reabsorbed in a few days and it poses no danger. It could cause a detached retina that requires prompt treatment.

      Usually the persons with high myopia may have high possibility of getting the accident of detached retinal. Usually the retina is too weak for the high prescription persons. They may have the detached retinal during the fierce activity or strong knock on the eyes. And the sneezing may cause the detached retina which belong to the strong knock through the throat and nose nerves.
