: Newborns see most clearly at a distance of 8 to 12 inches , which is approximately the distance between a mother’s face and her baby during breastfeeding.

: Use your face to attract your child's attention. Talking, smiling, and nodding during a feed encourages the child to look up and engage.

: If you notice one eye does not seem to move well, or if there is persistent poor focusing or visual tracking by 4 months, it is best to consult a pediatrician or pediatric ophthalmologist.
