All About IVF
New-born babies are like a book of mysteries. Their functionality, bodily metabolisms, psychological learning can be vastly different from a full-grown adult. This makes them all the more intriguing and fascinating for the parents. “Can they see color?”, is a question that arises in the minds of several new parents over and over again during this time. If you, too, are wondering if your baby can see the red-colored toy you have gifted him with, then read on to discover some interesting facts about your baby’s vision.
Can Babies See Color?
- Babies, right after they enter the world and come out of the birth canal, can see things in dark and light shades only. Their eyes are still very immature, and only with some time can they start to perceive things as they are.
- Till then, they see everything in black and white, with a tinge of gray. Around this time, they cannot make out things that are situated too far away (more than 15 inches).
- You might feel that your baby looks only at your face and concentrates only on your eyes while breastfeeding, and this is completely possible since they can perceive round objects better, especially when they are with light or dark borders.
- With time, as they grow and age a few more weeks, they start to see other colors, and the first color that they perceive is red.
- In the next few months, your baby will start to recognize your face and will let out a gleeful smile every time you come close to them.
Your baby’s visual capacity should be one of your primary concerns. If you feel that your baby doesn’t seem to have developed the capacity to perceive things placed more than a foot away even after sufficient time has passed, then visit a pediatrician.
