In this article. Babies are born with a full visual capacity to see objects and colors. However, newborns are extremely nearsighted (far away objects are blurry): 1  Newborns can see objects about 8-15 inches away quite sharply. 2  Newborns prefer to look at faces over other shapes and objects and at round shapes with light and dark borders (such as your adoring eyes).
Your baby should be able to follow a moving object with his/her eyes, if it is not moving too fast. Babies are now able to focus and pay attention to the face of a parent or other person near them. Your baby will start reaching for things he/she sees. Four to six months Visual acuity is approximately 20/60. Your baby can now see all colors, although color vision is not as sensitive as an adults. He/she will turn his/her head to look at bright colors and lights. Your baby should recognize objects that he/she has seen and played with before. Babies can now see a three-dimensional view of the world. This allows them to reach and grasp for a finger or rattle, clap hands, or transfer objects from one hand to another. Seven to twelve months Visual acuity is now about 20/30.
