: Yes, Craig it is possible and quite easy to roll with your eyes closed.

To be honest, I've never tried to roll with my eyes open. I can't tell you the number of times I've seen people lose or dislodge their contacts - but I never thought to ask them why they were opening their eyes. I wear glasses because I'm too big of a wuss to put anything *in* my eyes.

Anyhow, if I were to open my eyes I'm sure I would just be visually disorineted. In the dark, it is all muscle memory and that seems to work pretty well for me.
