I believe my question is self explanatory, therefore the need for details is moot.

You've been watching too much TV.
A dead body's eyes only "cloud over" under certain conditions -- it doesn't always happen.
And the conditions (temperature, cause of death, environmental conditions) determine the time it takes when it *does* happen, so your question can't be given an answer that's valid for every case.

When bacteria begin to colonize the inside of the eyes and they start to decompose. Unless it's really hot or really cold within a few days. The eyes are soft and full of fluid so they rot quickly, especially in the heat. Here in Florida, it can start after just a few hours under the right circumstances

The eyes begin to cloud over as a person approached death. Once the person expires, the pupils remain fixed and dilated.
