it does not sound very natural but the intended message comes across. I would say it this way: It's sad to see people turn a blind eye when the truth is in front of them.

Your use of "being blind" feels too close to a handicap, and thereby comes across as insensitive. The image of "poking in the eyes" is also repulsive. It is too ugly to be used in such a metaphor. Instead, I suggest that you specify what it is that they are unmindful of. As an example, I'll use "blind to the facts":
"It is sad to observe people being blind to the facts, even as the truth literally stares them in the face."
Note also that I used an active verb, "stares", rather than "staring". Your original sentence contains no active verb except for "is". (An active verb has a subject. "Staring" would act as an adjective, not a verb.) Active verbs will improve your writing. Try to give every sentence a subject and an active verb. It is not necessary that every single sentence have one, but try.

Not very natural...
"It's sad to see people ignoring the truth, even when it's staring them in the face."
