summary

We all know that the so-called mental retardation is that intelligence is much lower than that of normal people, and life will be affected to a certain extent. Some parents worry that their children are mentally retarded because their eyes are wide when they are born. Now let's talk about the baby's wide eye distance is mentally retarded.

Is infant eye distance wide mentally retarded

First, genetic factors, chromosomal abnormalities, such as congenital stupidity, account for 5% - 10% of mentally retarded children. Gene mutation such as congenital metabolic disorders or prenatal damage, including intrauterine infection, hypoxia, physical and chemical factors such as harmful poisons, drugs, radiation, mercury, lead, smoking, drinking, drug abuse, severe malnutrition of pregnant women or birth injury asphyxia, intracranial hemorrhage, premature infants, hypotension, nuclear jaundice and so on, can lead to the occurrence of mental retardation.

Second, the main performance is that the intelligence is obviously lower than the average level in the development period, and accompanied by the defect of adaptive behavior. The so-called developmental period mentioned above refers to the age before 18 years old. The so-called intelligence significantly lower than the average level refers to the two standard deviations (i.e. lower than 70) of the IQ lower than the normal average. The so-called adaptive behavior defect refers to the failure to meet the social and personal standards according to their age and cultural background. The disease can be caused by many reasons.

Third: a large part of congenital diseases are due to chromosomal problems, resulting in intrauterine development barriers, or delayed development. There is just one case here, that is, the eye (orbit) of human embryonic period grows near the ear at the beginning. Imagine that if the program stops here, or the preset eye distance has a problem, it will affect the distance of the eye (in fact, it is mainly the orbit, which is not involved here). The size of eyelid or fissure is abnormal.

matters needing attention

In this way, we will know that the wide eye distance is not certain to be mentally retarded, because there are many factors leading to mental retardation. You can't, but you can tell by the distance between your eyes that a child is mentally retarded. In order to let more parents rest assured, it is recommended to take their children to the regular hospital for other examinations.
