HELPING BABY SEE
By Dr. Alden N. Haffner
D**ector, Vision Conservation
Institute
We don’t know, exactly, how
much baby can see at birth, prob
ably nothing more than light and
dark and vague shapes. We do
know, however, that much of the
eye mechanism needed for fine
vision, is not developed completely
in the new born baby.
At one month of age, baby is able
to control the muscles of his eyes
enough to follow an object for a
short distance. During the second
month, baby is able to keep the
object in sight and to follow it for
a longer distance. He’s able to fo
cus his eyes better and to see more
clearly.
There is much that a mother can
do to help her baby’s eyes develop
properly. Here are a few pointers
mother may keep in mind as she ob
serves and cares for her new baby.
Place baby in his crib so that
neither eye is favored as he looks
about the room.
Encourage baby to use both eyes
and both sides of his body in his
play activities by placing toys so
that neither eye is favored.
When baby has a fever, keep him
from concentrating on close-vision
tasks, such as looking at a picture
book or playing with blocks or any
toys which require concentration.
Give baby as much freedom as
possible for activities and exper
iences that are needed to make see
ing meaningful.
Today, there is a strong trend
toward preventive care in the field
of vision. It is possible to foresee
future health problems through
regular eye examinations. In fact,
it is best to plan the first profes

War days when a hand-picked

10th U. S. Cavalry.
sional eye examination at the age
of three. At this age it is possible
to determine whether there is a
tendency toward nearsightedness
or farsightedness. At this age too
it is possible to determine whether
the many visual skills a child will
need as he grows are beginning to
develop as they should.
An early examination also gives
your eye doctor the records he
needs for future comparison as
both the child and his vision de
velop and as his eyes are exposed
to the tasks of modern living, such
as reading and television. Only reg
ular eye examinations can deter
mine what changes, if any, have
taken place in the eyes.
Happily, most babies grow and
develop and learn to see without
any trouble.
