According to Scholars, close our eyes when in prayer is 'makrooh', this is means not forbidden but Muslims must avoid it. You are allowed to close your eyes if this is the only way to increase your concentration. In example, when you pray in noisy environment, etc. But if you can concentrate without close your eyes, you must open your eyes.

Dhuha time starts when the sun is rising. And finishes when Duh'r time has comes, when the sun is on the highest point. But if you want to know Dhuha time in your place according to 'clock time', you must ask salat schedule from your local masjid, because salat time in other places are different.
