ELI5: Why when you zone out(daydream), do your eyes go wide and you don't blink?

Why is it that happens? Or does it just happen to me and the people I see zoning out?

because your frontal cortex's neurons aren't firing at the same rate of the rods in your eyes leaving a blank image that repeats tricking your mind to think that it's seeing a still image when in reality it's seeing in real time with parts of the retina blurring it out and the blurring happens do to your eye widening.
