Question

Can infants sleep with the lights on at night? Does this action affect their vision and rest?

Answer

Generally, it is advisable to avoid bright lighting when children are sleeping, as it may interfere with their growth and sleep quality. If there is a concern about the inconvenience of children getting up at night to use the bathroom, consider using a floor lamp or a low-light night light, but ensure the brightness is not too intense. Additionally, maintaining a quiet, clean, humid environment, as well as good indoor air circulation, is crucial for children’s sleep quality. In most cases, it is not recommended to leave the lights on while children are sleeping, unless it is for the convenience of nighttime care, in which case a small night light can be used.
