Patient's question:
Experts, I want to take photos of my child who is over 40 days old. I'm using a point-and-shoot camera, and the flash can't be turned off. If I take photos of the child, will it leave any aftereffects due to stimulating his eyes? Usually, at noon, my son immediately turns his head away when he sees sunlight. So, I don't know if it's okay to use the flash?Doctor's answer:
Your child is already so big, a flash going off a couple of times is enough to take a picture, which can be damaging to the eyes. This kind of damage is very small and almost negligible. Sunlight is very strong.
