A member asked:
How do you find out if a child has congenital blindness and at what age do you find this out?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
At each well check: At each well check, the doctor will examine your baby's eyes and development to see if she is showing normal vision development. If you notice that your baby is not focusing, be sure and ask your doctor to check this.
