Does alcohol cause hallucinations?
It can, but usually only at high levels of intoxication or during withdrawal, and usually in cases of advanced alcoholism. True hallucinations, although they may appear visual, occur only in the brain. They only seem to be happening outside the body. The blurring of eyesight and other visual aberrations that come with high levels of intoxication are not hallucinations. They are caused by the brain's inability to control the muscles that focus the eyes, and sometimes by its inability to correctly process the visual information.
