The sense most early exercised by the Infant Is the sense of but at It has the power only to light from darkness Is in comparison with Its later blind, while In of the lower the senses are at birth fully What a there Is dull eye of the newborn Infant and the sharp vision of the young chick, which Is able to pick up with precision a grain of corn or snap up a fly while the eggshell tie still stick to Its back The eye of the Infant, however. Is developed very gradually, and during infancy and childhood It learns bow In the first few days It notices the difference In-tween light and darkness when the light is intense, and It may even knit its brow In sleep if a bright light ha brought close to Its face. On the MUM a striking bright color will be noticed when held close to the face. in all these cases, however, the In- follows the Object by turning Its head and not by the movement of the eyes.

One of the of In- In the development of tho In- power of vision Is the way In which It learns to appreciate the ob- seen. It has to learn to discover tho distance of objects, their shape, size, character, etc., mid this It dot's with the assistance of the sens of touch. The face of the mother or nurse Is made familiar in that it Is brought so close to the infant's face. After the Infant has learned to see objects distinctly at the distance of several feet It begins to use both eyes In common. At the eyes net of each other, so that It double vision and sees everything double. This double vision can be produced by many at will by looking The infant having reached the point When it sees an object clearly, it must also begin to understand objects of three Is, to find out the difference between a Hat surface and n solid body. Here the sense of touch also assists The Infant object and. putting it to Its lips and satisfies itself as to the shape, character, etc. It is Interesting In this connection to note some cases In which a person born blind recovers sight when grown. In one case a young man who had lost his sight in early infancy was so completely blinded that he could not distinguish even the strongest light from darkness. After on operation on one eye had been successfully performed he began to see objects without understanding being able to Judge their distances from bis he felt If everything was touching his eye, so that to touch an object be first Would put one finger or the hand up before his face, the object and reach forward until his finger In contact with the ob- After he had recovered the use of both eyes he began to find out that everything was not flat, but that things had a certain thickness as well as length and breadth, and In this way be began to see solid objects. Put even fur a year or two after com- recovery he was to decide whether n certain figure was a flat face, In n painting, or a solid body. He was also obliged to learn the animals mid objects, not know- the difference between a cat and a dog until he had touched them. go through Just the same of learning bow to see In The child may be two or three years, or even older, before it has control over Its eyes and can Judge of the distance of objects in the room, etc. The cure of the eye is a of great importance for mothers and nurses. The eyes of newborn Infants should be carefully washed with fresh. clear water, and If anything unusual Is noticed the physician should be seen. The Infant's eyes specially to be protected against too bright a light. It Is by no means an uncommon thing to see a nurse Wheeling a young Infant In carriage While the bright sun Is pouring child's eyes. This does not argue against taking Infants the sun when weather Is not too warm, but the eyes should always be protected against the bright glare, whether direct or reflected.
