Bismillah and salam,
I had difficluty finding the hadith about lost prayers in English. Where do you guy go to search? islamworld.net? What are your favorite research sites for hadith and quran translations?
I found this hadith which i did not know before today interesting. Sometimes I used to look when making du'a.

Jabir b. Samura reported: The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: The people who lift their eyes towards the sky in Prayer should avoid it or they would lose their eyesight.

and Abu Huraira reported: People should avoid lifting their eyes towards the sky while supplicating in prayer, otherwise their eyes would be snatched away.

From Sunan Abu Dawud

Book 3, Number 0863:

     Narrated AbuHurayrah:

     Anas ibn Hakim ad-Dabbi said that he feared Ziyad or Ibn Ziyad; so he came to Medina and met
     AbuHurayrah. He attributed his lineage to me and I became a member of his lineage.

     AbuHurayrah said (to me): O youth, should I not narrate a tradition to you? I said: Why not, may Allah
     have mercy on you?

     (Yunus (a narrator) said: I think he narrated it (the tradition) from the Prophet
     (peace_be_upon_him):) The first thing about which the people will be called to account out of their
     actions on the Day of Judgment is prayer. Our Lord, the Exalted, will say to the angels - though He
     knows better: Look into the prayer of My servant and see whether he has offered it perfectly or
     imperfectly. If it is perfect, that will be recorded perfect.

     If it is defective, He will say: See there are some optional prayers offered by My servant. If there are
     optional prayer to his credit, He will say: Compensate the obligatory prayer by the optional prayer for
     My servant. Then all the actions will be considered similarly.
