It's normal for your baby's eyes to wander or cross now and then during the first month or so of life. A newborn is just getting the hang of making his eyes work together. But if you notice that your baby's eyes seem crossed or misaligned all the time, or if they seem to wander after the first couple of months, the problem could be strabismus (misaligned eyes) or amblyopia (lazy eye). Talk to his doctor, who will probably refer you to an ophthalmologist. Fortunately, these conditions can be successfully treated if detected early.

It takes your baby's eyes some time to adjust to the world, so at first they might not always look or function the way you expect. It's perfectly normal in the first three months of life for your infant's eyes to be crossed, for example, or for him not to be able to see much past your face when you're holding him. Still, certain signs could indicate a problem.

From the day your baby's born, his eyes will aid his physical, mental, and emotional development by allowing him to take in information — a little bit at first, and eventually much more — about the world around him.

When can a parent expect their baby's eye color to change? We'll explore this common question and delve deeper into infant vision and development throughout the the first year.

Your baby's doctor should examine his eyes at each well-baby visit. She'll check them for problems, just as she examines his back, ears, breathing, and heart, to make sure that all's well.

If your baby is a newborn, it's more likely that he's having a reaction to the antibiotic drops he was given at birth or that he caught an infection during his journey through the birth canal. Your baby's doctor will treat these types of infections right away to prevent damage to your baby's vision.

The Cairn is assumed as one of the subcategories of Scotland's terriers along with the Westies (West Highland White) and the Scottish, The Westies and the Cairns are highly related. For one, Westies are hybrids of white dogs crossed with Cairns of western Scotland.

What's the red bump on the edge of my baby's eyelid?
It might be a sty (in medical terms, a hordeolum). A sty forms when bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus infect one of the tiny oil glands at the base of an eyelash. The infection produces a tender, red, pus-filled bump or boil. You may also notice some yellow or white discharge from the bump, and his eyelid may get a little crusty.

Dogs are arguably one of the best companions that a human can find, so it goes without saying that getting one has probably crossed your mind at least once before.
