Is it permissible to perform prayers through eyes so as to prevent others from seeing one's prayer?

The Details of the Question
Unfortunately, people who perform prayers draw reaction, are alienated and risk their careers in some workplaces nowadays. I will start to work somewhere next week in a place where I will not be tolerated if I perform prayers. Is it permissible for me to perform the noon and afternoon prayers through my eyes in that place? The Answer
Dear Brother / Sister,
Prayers cannot be performed through eyebrows and eyes. Such a prayer will not be valid.
Another issue is that it is fard to perform prayers on time. Therefore, it is not permissible to postpone prayers due to one's job.
What one needs to do is to ask permission from the employer to perform prayers. If you are not given to perform prayers, you need to leave that workplace and find somewhere else to work.
Besides, it is not appropriate to abandon Allah's order just because "people will despise you". A person who does not perform prayers lest people should despise him should not forget that he will be damned by Allah, angels and prophets.
