Patient's question:
Baby is 22 days old sometimes only opens one eye, sometimes both eyes are open but one is bigger than the other. Will it affect later?Doctor's answer:
A newborn baby's eyes are usually closed, and even when open, they give a dull impression. It takes about a week before the baby can perceive the brightness and darkness of light. The eyes can follow objects moving slowly within a 15-centimeter radius to adjust vision and coordinate binocular vision, paying attention to observation. Since there are many factors that can cause external eye diseases in children, it is essential to identify the cause before treatment to adopt targeted measures for effective results. Additionally, daily care measures are indispensable. It is recommended to eat less spicy food and consume more eye-protective foods.
