What Is It When Someone Has a Vacant Look in Their Eyes?
Question by N. Cognito: What is it when someone has a vacant look in their eyes?
I’ve been noticing that there are some people who have a vacant look in their eyes and seem to be a bit distant. Is this a sign of mental illness or drug abuse? What type of mental illness would it be?

Answer by Micki 48
People who are borked out of their mind on drugs can have a vacant look. Some antipsychotic medications can cause a person to have a vacant look. Any mental illness that causes a person to lose touch with reality can cause a vacant look, like schizophrenia. And some people can have a vacant look in their eyes simply because they are wrapped up in their own thoughts and not paying attention to what’s going on around them.
