title: [Is the visual fixation mark adequate visual attraction for babies in the 1st year of life?].
abstract: One of the most important clinical examinations in strabology is the test for foveal fixation. This test presupposes a mature primary visual pathway with well established afferent and efferent reactions, which certainly does not exist from birth. The presumed retinal fixation of 234 infants was critically examined during continuous observation in their first year of life.
