According to pediatric doctors, newborn baby's eye is extremely tender and delicate, and is in development. When the baby long-term stares at a direction, he is most likely to become cross-eyed or amblyopia. The following are some suggestions on parents to prevent harm of infant vision.

Within the first few months of birth, development of some muscles regulating activities of eye is not perfect, coordinated movement of the two eyes is not good enough. Babies like to use gaze intently to observe things around, or communicate with parents. Besides, the baby's nasal bone has no development, and the two eyes are close proximity. Young parents always feel the baby is like "crossed eyes". In fact, for most infants, it is a temporary and normal physiological phenomenon, usually after few months, the two eyes can develop a good watching ability, parents should correctly understand, and do not be misled.

Infancy, if parents care not enough, may induce or aggravate infant strabismus and cross-eye. Such as, the child to see one side of the light, bedroom light is too bright, not pay attention to constantly changing body position ...
... of children; or the baby bed toys or small lights hanging too close, the child long-term stares at nearly things.

Prevent baby strabismus. Pediatrician reminds: Parents should pay attention to transformation of children sleep position, frequent changes in direction of light projection, so that the baby's eyesight will not turn to the one side only.

From the characteristics of a baby's visual development, two months later, vision of the infant will enhance, and has been able to watch people and things around. At this time, if the baby sleeps in the cradle, not place anything such as furnishings, toys, objects, etc. within 1.5 meters away from the cradle. Some young mothers often hang holding a toy that does not move above the cradle to amuse the baby. Due to the near distance, the children watch for a long time, therefore, it is very easy to form cross-eye after a long time.

To display toys or objects around the cradle or baby bed, parents must place 1.5 meters away, and should display more than one toy and leave a certain distance between two toys, in order to promote the baby's eyes constantly rotating and to prevent cross-eye. Besides, the baby cannot lie in the cradle for too long, adults should hold up the baby for a period of time so that children can see things around, and generate curiosity, to increase the frequency of the baby's eyes movements.
