The correct response is:
Rubbing your eyes stimulates mechanoreceptors in the eye.
When you rub your eyelids, the pressure applied can activate mechanoreceptors, which are sensitive to mechanical changes, rather than directly stimulating photoreceptors that respond to light. This can lead to the perception of light or visual sensations even in the absence of actual light.
