Snakes have no eyelids, and so they appear to sleep with their eyes open. In that sense, no, snakes eyes do not "look different" when they're sleeping.
In the place of moving lids, snakes' eyes are protected by transparent layer of scales called spectacles which help both protect the eyes and keep them moist - just as eyelids do for other animals.
