How old a baby when she can see?

Babies are born with the ability to see, but their vision isn't fully developed at birth. Here's a breakdown:

* Birth: Babies can see blurry shapes and movement, and they are most attracted to high contrast patterns (like black and white). Their vision is very limited and they can only see things clearly about 8-12 inches away.

* 1 month: They start to track moving objects with their eyes and can distinguish between different colors.

* 2-3 months: Color vision continues to develop, and they can now see more detail and focus on objects further away.

* 4-6 months: Vision is becoming clearer, and they can recognize faces and objects from a distance.

* 6-12 months: Their vision approaches that of an adult. They can now see details and colors clearly.

Important note: If you have any concerns about your baby's vision, it's always best to consult with a pediatrician or an ophthalmologist.
