Certainly the relationship between the hands and eyes must have been critical, as you have mentioned, the eyes are a critical component of the human machine to be sure.
I have recordings of all three of the Golf Stroke Engineering Master classes Homer Kelley lived to conduct. I do not recall any such discussion relating the Centered Head to a "center of balance" or even to the body's center of gravity.

Note that in The Glossary, he defines Balance as "Holding the center of gravity of the body inside The Stance without moving the Head."
