Appropriate age to identify colours

2025-01-16 06:50:54
My baby girl is aged 25months. She speaks quite well.  But the problem is she still cannot identify colours. Her vison & hearing seems normal. Her other milestones were achieved in normal time. What could be the reason for this? Is this normal at this age not to identify colours or should I seek medical help?

Have you consulted an eye dr for her so far. If not, get a consultation done. If everything is ok as per their examination,  then can wait.
