Parents attach great importance to the development of babies at every stage after birth. Parents will observe the changes in their baby's body and feel nervous if they find any abnormalities. The baby's vision is a concern for parents, and the size of the pupils needs to be taken into account. So, what is the pupil size of a two month old baby?
The normal size of the pupil is 2.5 to 5mm, and the size of the pupil generally changes with changes in light. When the light is strong, the pupils will become smaller, and when the light is weak, the pupils will enlarge. Normal babies should undergo eye health checks, including pupil size, refractive error, and fundus. If any abnormalities are found, targeted treatment should be given.
Parents also need to observe their baby's eyeballs. If the eyeballs are too big or too small, it is not normal. If the eyeball is too small, it may be congenital microphthalmia. If the eyeball is too large, it may be due to a large and cloudy cornea, as well as photophobia, tearing, and redness of the eyes, which may indicate congenital glaucoma. Congenital glaucoma can lead to optic nerve atrophy and ultimately blindness, so if it is suspected that the baby has congenital glaucoma, timely medical attention must be sought.
It is important to protect your baby's eyes and undergo regular eye examinations. Do not let your baby get too tired and pay attention to eye hygiene. Eye diseases must be treated seriously, otherwise they will have a significant impact on the baby's future life, physical development, and psychological well-being.
