How far does a one month old child see?

A one-month-old child can see objects clearly at a distance of about 8 to 12 inches, which is roughly the distance to a caregiver's face during feeding. Their vision is still developing, so they may have difficulty focusing on objects further away and can only see in high-contrast colors. Over the next few months, their visual acuity will improve, allowing them to see further distances and recognize more colors.
