At the moment when a baby is born and opens their eyes, parents can know if there are any problems with their baby's eyes. But when a baby is first born, many parents actually do not observe and cannot determine whether the baby's eyes are normal. Because many people don't know what color a normal baby's eyeball is. So, what color are normal baby eyeballs?
Under normal circumstances, babies' eyeballs are dark and shiny because we are of the yellow race, with black eyes and yellow skin. The baby is born with this characteristic immediately, with dark and shiny eyes, indicating that the baby's eyes are normal, but yellow skin may indicate that the baby has jaundice.
Of course, if the color of the baby's eyes is not correct, it indicates that there is some kind of problem with the baby's eyes. For example, if a baby's eyeballs turn yellow and their pupils reflect luster like cat eyes, it indicates that the child may have congenital malignant retinoblastoma. Such a baby needs immediate treatment to remove the tumor.
Some babies may have grayish white or white eyeballs at birth, indicating that they may have congenital cataracts and require timely surgery to remove them.
Some babies are also born with eyeballs that are much larger than other children's, and appear bluish gray, resembling cow eyes. Such eyeballs are abnormal and may be caused by congenital glaucoma, requiring timely treatment.
