A protective reflex evoked by my finger about to gouge your eye out. A reflex doesn't involve a conscious decision because it doesn't involve the part of the brain where conscious thoughts occur. If you had to decide to shut your eyes before I jabbed my finger in your eye instead of closing them due to a reflex you would be blind after conducting that experiment two times. A reflex tract doesn't involve the decision making part of the brain.

Do you think a human can make decisions outside of their consciousness?
No. How do you make decisions totally unaware of the decision making process?
