Blank stare, bored look, glassy eyes
Last night I had need of expressing the three ideas in the title:
a blank stare - una mirada vacía? a bored look - una mirada de aburrimiento? glassy eyes - ojos de aburrimiento? Of course I talked it out and explained it, but I was unable to think of "good" translations. Any ideas?

a blank stare = una mirada perdida / una mirada extraviada
a bored look = una mirada aburrida glassy eyes = ojos aburridos glassy-eyed = de mirada perdida / de mirada vidriosa ojos vidriosos <> glassy eyes - It means something like ga-ga eyes, I think. |

Sosia, glassy eyes is the look in a person's eyes when they have been drinking too much. (like their eyes are open but they are not really seeing due to alcohol, being very tired, having a high fever, drug use, or crying.)

Al verlo mejor, la mayoría de la gente en internet usa ojos vidriosos para describir los ojos de un drogadicto. Otra frase que se usa es ojos hundidos (por enfermedad).
