Is a wide interocular distance considered idiotic?

Patient's question:

My daughter's eyes are a bit wide apart. Currently, although she doesn't seem particularly intelligent, her development still aligns with the milestones for a four-month-old child. However, I'm still afraid she might be intellectually disabled because I didn't eat much while I was pregnant, which makes me feel extremely upset and terrified.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it is recommended to go to the hospital for a check-up. If the child has any other special facial features, it is suggested to undergo a karyotype analysis test. If the child has low ear positioning, a flat nasal bridge, and palm hypoplasia, it is possible to actively seek early diagnosis through examination. Wishing the baby good health.
