Very much so, but not severely. Bell's Palsy affects the 5th and 6th cranial nerves (trigeminal and facial, respectively), which, obviously, are part of the nervous system.

What is the difference between bells palsy that has your eye open and the bells palsy where your eye is almost closed?

There is only one Bell's Palsy condition, which is characterized by parital facial paralysis on one side of the face. Depending on the severity, the eye might be able to be help open (which is normal in Bell's Palsy patients), or, if the infection was very severe, the nerves might be so affected that the eye would merely constantly remain closed, or close to being closed. This is the only difference between the 2 situations that you describe that I can see.
