Patient's question:
Baby is 22 days old. Sometimes they only open one eye, and sometimes they open both eyes, but one is bigger than the other. Will this have an impact 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 then follow objects moving slowly within a 15-centimeter range to adjust vision, coordinate binocular vision, and focus on observation.
