I am a pediatric ophthalmologist. It looks like pseudo squint. But vision can't be assessed on the basis of the photo. So you should consult a *Pediatric ophthalmologist*.

Small children have high convergence power, so sometimes you feel that the eye is turning inwards and small. But to make doubly sure that the baby really does not have any problem, you need to consult an ophthalmologist IN CLINIC. He needs proper examination in clinic.
