Infant vision

The development of your child's vision begins even before birth. From the moment your child enters the world, their eyes play a crucial role in their physical, mental, and emotional development by allowing them to gradually learn about their surroundings. However, it takes time for a baby's visual system to mature. In the first week of life, infants are not yet able to perceive much detail. Their initial view of the world is blurry and only in shades of gray.
