Question
My baby is one month old, but his eyes seem not to follow objects. Is this normal? Are there any precautions to take?
Answer
Hello, it is normal for a baby’s eyes not to follow objects at one month old, and you should not worry too much. Typically, within a few months, a baby’s eyes will start to follow objects. You can try moving a small red item slowly in front of the baby about ten to twenty centimeters away to attract his gaze and help his eyes follow the object. If you have any other questions or concerns, it is recommended that you consult with a doctor.
