defocused
Lacking optical clarity
Defocused describes something that has lost or been taken out of sharp focus.
In photography and optics, a defocused image appears blurry because the lens isn't adjusted for clarity: The background was deliberately defocused to emphasize the subject.
The term extends to attention or concentration that has drifted: His defocused gaze suggested his mind was elsewhere.
