My former boss did the same exact thing of closing his eyes for lengthy periods of time when he spoke. He was very creative and I think it made him visualize things better, but it was sometimes disconcerting, especially when he was giving me a performance review or something. Breaking eye contact like that would make us feel uncomfortable at first, before some of us all got to talking at lunch and realized he did it to everyone, it was just his way of thinking.
Sometimes my pdoc will also take off his glasses and close his eyes before he says something. It's usually something pretty "deep" that comes after the glasses off/closing eyes thing.
It must access another part of one's mind.
