Fetuses that are not delivered at full term are considered premature infants. At 29 weeks of pregnancy, the premature baby is very weak and needs to be observed in the hospital for a long time, as well as staying in the incubator for a long time. Parents want to know about the visual development of premature infants. When can 29 week premature infants see?
29 week premature infants have similar visual development to full-term infants after birth. They have a sense of light at birth, and after two months, they can see objects 10-20 centimeters in front of them clearly. Their eyes can also move with objects, and by nine months, their vision can reach the normal standard of 0.1. After one year old, a baby's vision is still slowly developing.
However, premature infants born at 29 weeks old may have poor physical conditions, and after examination, they may develop diseases such as retinopathy of prematurity. This disease can affect the visual development of premature infants, causing them to delay their ability to see and even develop visual impairments.
29 week premature infants experience much more problems after birth than full-term infants, and parents also endure more at this time. Therefore, during pregnancy, pregnant women should try to avoid the possibility of premature birth. Throughout the entire process of pregnancy, it is important to eat, drink, and sleep well. Proper prenatal check ups are necessary to understand the fetal development status and promptly address any issues that may arise.
