Almost no incandescent light bulb has a vacuum inside. They are filled with low pressure inert gas (mostly argon sometimes mixed with nitrogen, some bulbs have krypton or xenon for lower temps) not only because it makes them safer to handle and harder to break but mainly because it slows down the decay of the filament by slowing down its evaporation. It bounces tungsten atoms back on the filament.
