A member asked:
My 7 month old looks at people when far away however when i have him close up, he stares at my mouth more than my eyes. can this be a sign of autism?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Your son's vision is developing and he will focus on both near and far objects. A mobile above his crib avoiding electronic devices and reading picture books is recommended. Discuss his eye exam with Healthtap or his Pediatrician. Watch for signs of eye redness and discharge.
