I have been told at a Tibetan Buddhist center that their practice is to meditate with their eyes open because the benefits are more easily transferred to your every day life. Since you are awake with your eyes open throughout the day, learning to meditate with your eyes open should help you implement the benefits you gain through meditation in your everyday life.
