This is normal until your baby's vision improves and eye muscles strengthen.

Newborn Eye Color Eye Color Changes Over Time. Over time, if melanocytes only secrete a little melanin, your baby will have blue eyes. If they secrete a bit more, his eyes will look green or hazel. When melanocytes get really busy, eyes look brown (the most common eye color), and in some cases they may appear very dark indeed. Because it takes about a year for melanocytes to finish their work it can be a dicey business calling eye color before the baby’s first birthday. The color change does slow down some after the first 6 months of life, but there can be plenty of change left at that point.

Newborn Eyesight Before birth, your baby was accustomed to a dark, muted environment. The fetus’ eyelids fuse (close) during week 10 of gestation and remain closed until about 26 weeks’ gestation. Newborn infants generally have poor eyesight and little ability to focus beyond 6 or 10 inches away. The amount of color vision is not known for certain, but infants probably do not see subtle differences in color until 2 to 3 months of age. 1  If your baby is born with closed eyelids, no special precautions or treatments are necessary. 2  The lids will open on their own within a short time, or by around 26 weeks.
