A member asked:
Could i be born blind in one of my eyes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's possible: There are multiple diseases that can affect the baby's eyesight and how the eyes develop. Some of these are genetic, some happen by chance. A full examination by a pediatric ophthalmologist can help determine the cause.
