    Study Notes

    Development of Infant Vision

    • Saccadic eye movements in newborns are characterized by horizontal hypometric movement, which becomes normal by 1 year old.
    • Accommodation in infants is fixed at less than 2 months, typically at a distance of 30 cm, and becomes good after 2 months, with hyperopes and myopes experiencing the worst accommodation.
    • Vergence in infants is accurate for 70% by 3 months, with well-developed primastic fusional vergence by 6 months.
    • Optokinetic nystagmus is present at birth, with symmetric movement by 3-6 months, and is better from temporal to nasal.
    • Contrast sensitivity in infants is initially low but improves with age, with difficulties in discriminating blue color (S cones) in newborns, becoming normal trichromatic vision by 4 months.
    • Infants can perceive their mother's face at 2 days old and can differentiate between normal and scrambled faces at 2 months old.
    • Color vision in infants develops gradually, with discrimination of red-orange and yellow-green cones at 1 week, difficulty with blue cones at newborn to 1 month, and normal trichromatic vision by 4 months.
    • Common vision conditions in the pediatric population include hyperopia, astigmatism, myopia, and binocular disorders, with prevalence varying by age groups.
    • Equipment used for examining infant vision includes trial case, prisms, lens bars, transilluminator, ophthalmoscope, and toys with bright colors, sound, and movement.
    • Various tests such as angle kappa, Hirschberg test, confrontation (visual field), Bruckner test, and pupillary reflexes are used to assess infant vision and eye health.
    • Anisometropia, or a significant difference in refractive error between the two eyes, can put children at risk of amblyopia and requires correction based on the degree of difference.
    • Common causes of leukocoria in infants include congenital cataracts, persistent primary hyperplastic vitreous, retinoblastoma, Coat’s disease, congenital toxoplasmosis, and other intraocular inflammations, which require early detection and treatment to save vision and potentially life.
