Is it hereditary for babies to have different eye sizes?

Some careful parents have discovered that their babies' eyes are of different sizes. They think this is really strange and wonder if this is due to genetic reasons. So, is the reason for the different eye sizes of babies genetic? Or are there other reasons? Let's take a look.

Many pregnant mothers can't wait to know what their future baby's appearance and facial features will be like! But the baby just born looks really ugly. But as the baby grows up day by day, his appearance changes every day and he will become more and more like his parents. Watching the baby grow little by little, the changes in the eyes, nose, ears, little mouth, etc., every part is magical for parents. So, what mysteries does a baby go through in the process of growing from an embryo to a little person? What are the genetic secrets of the baby's facial features? Let's take a look!

1. Eyes

1) Eye shape: A child’s eye shape and size are inherited from his or her parents. Big eyes are dominant over small eyes. If one of the parents has big eyes, the likelihood of having a child with big eyes is higher.

2) Double eyelids: Double eyelids are dominant traits. A baby born to a parent with single eyelids and a parent with double eyelids is very likely to have double eyelids. But if both parents have single eyelids, the children will generally also have single eyelids.

3) Eye color: Dark colors such as black are dominant over light colors. That is to say, if one person has black eyes and the other has blue eyes, their children will not have blue eyes.

4) Eyelashes: Long eyelashes are also dominant. As long as one of the parents has long eyelashes, the child is very likely to inherit long eyelashes.

It is not a disease if the baby's eyes are of different sizes. As long as the difference is not very obvious, it is acceptable. People are not symmetrical. Many people's left and right eyes are different, but the difference is so small that we don't notice it. Therefore, parents should not worry if they find that their baby's eyes are of different sizes.
