If you're missing some pages, it might be that you crashed and InDesign was not able to save those pages. That's VERY unusual, as InDesign normally does a background mini-save every so often, and when you  open InDesign afterwords, you're prompted to Recover the file. Did you  see that?  Are you sure you've opened the latest copy of the file?

Regarding the blurry  pages, I'm guessing you mean that some images are blurry/pixellated. Select each image and look in the Links panel. Does it show a red stop icon for that image? That means it can't find the original image. Choose Relink... from the Links panel menu and in the dialog box, find and select the original image you  imported/placed.

Please be more specific. Are we talking about pages with just images or pages with images and text? Can you post a screen shot showing what exactly is happening?

Also what version of InDesign and what operating system are you using?

Hi. They are pages with images.

I am using Adobe indesign CC 2018.

The images are not clear.

Assuming that the images are properly linked (check the links panel as AnneMarie suggested) then try View>Display Performance>High Quality Display.
