When and What Can Baby See?
As your baby transitions from the comforting darkness of the womb to the vibrant, noisy world outside, their vision undergoes an incredible transformation. So, just how well can your newborn see? In the beginning, not much—but that changes quickly. According to Dr. Ronald Benner, President of the American Optometric Association (AOA), a baby’s vision improves significantly in the first six months. This rapid development is closely tied to brain maturation, as both the visual and cognitive systems advance in tandem.
