Question

A premature baby born less than eight months ago is now one month old but does not respond to tickling and cannot focus on anything. Is there a vision problem? Generally, when can premature babies start to see things?

Answer

Generally, infants are born with vision, but their initial vision is weak. As they grow, infants gradually learn to recognize the people who care for them, and their vision becomes clearer and better by the time they are four months old. It is recommended that you place some red items in front of the baby to observe if there is any reaction. If you are concerned about the development of a premature baby, it is advisable to take them to a doctor for an evaluation as soon as possible.
