Actually while the majority of Gecko's don't have eyelids there are a few types of Gecko that do. I know this for a fact since I own a few Leopard Geckos and Golden Geckos :)

All the Leopard Gecko I own have eyelids and close their eyes while they rest/sleep while my Golden Gecko don't have eyelids and sleep with their eyes open and lick their eyes :3

Leopard Geckos are a type of eublepharidae Gecko which is why they have eyelids unlike every other Gecko.

There are other types of Gecko that have eyelids as well like the; Banded Gecko, Cat Gecko, African Fat tail Gecko and the African Claw Gecko. There probably are a couple more or so but those are the ones I know about.
