Does it really matter to Close your Eyes While Praying.
Why do people close their eyes while praying?

closing of your eyes is supposed to show you are concentrating on the lord and ignoring all distractions, that he is the most important thing in that moment. the covering of hair is a nigerian/african thing not dictated by the church and most countries dont do it.
