As the newborn sees

As the newborn sees

Be touched to the newborn, mothers and fathers intuitively incline over him, bringing closer the person to the kid. And it is not accidental, the sight of the newborn differs from sight of the adult: just been born little man, unfortunately, will not be able to consider the mom.

Instruction

1. The sight of the newborn child in many respects differs from sight of the adult. Only having been born, the kid sees about 40 cm at distance, but the look is not fixed on objects. It is possible to tell that the first week of the life the child only distinguishes light spots.

2. Can seem that the kid saw something – he suddenly sharply shudders at bright lighting or looks away, but all this occurs at the level of reflexes. The child spent 9 months in mother's womb in outer darkness, and it is just necessary to adapt to the world of light. Complication of sight begins only about 2-3 weeks of life, there is a perception of flowers, the subject sight appears.

3. By the end of the first month of life the kid is able to track certain bright and large objects, approximately to two-month age more or less conscious reaction to a type of certain objects appears (small bottles with milk, for example). The newborn does not distinguish fine details, he is capable to see only outlines of objects. That by 2 months of life the kid begins to distinguish colors, it is necessary to understand that it is not about all range, and only about some shades. Parents quite often try to surround the kid with quiet, pastel tones, but it is necessary to include in an interior of the room and bright accents on which the kid will be able to concentrate a look.

4. The sight of the child develops constantly, every week becoming better and more sharply, but only by 12 months it is possible to say that it is more or less created. The sight "adult" only to age of 6-7 years becomes final.

5. If to describe sight of the baby on stages, then by the end of the first month of life the child is capable to be focused on the face of mom, on a small bottle for feeding – is short-term. Since two months the kids begin to look after moving objects, show interest in toys, the faces of people. Newborns are capable to notice the objects located close only by 4 months, and only from half a year of the movement of eyes become really operated and realized. The binocular sight is established only by 9 months, till this time the brain of the child is not capable to process at the same time the signals arriving from the left and right eye.
