My baby is 37days old. I am not able to make eye contact with him. Sometimes it seems that he is looking at me but when I say something he doesn’t response and moves his eyes to another direction. I try to talk to him but doesn’t seem to work. Is there any problem? What should I do? How can I check if he has vision?

Q. Hello Doctor.. My baby is 3 month 2weeks old, haven't started making eye contact yet. I try to talk to him to direct his gaze towards me but nothing helps. He responds to my voice but doesn't look at me. At times it seems that he is looking at the toy for a moment but then turn his gaze from it and starts looking somewhere else.
