At what age do the babies recognize objects and trace them with their eyes? My 8 weeks old baby still doesn't move his eyes as per the object movement. Otherwise he moves his eyes in random direction.. Is that OK?

Hi Purva,The muscles that initiate movement start to strengthen from birth to 2 months, at which point infants have control of their eye. However, images still appear unclear at two months due to other components of the visual system like the fovea and retina and the brain circuitry that are still in their developmental stages.
