A 3-month-old baby can typically see and recognize familiar faces and objects from several feet away, sometimes even across a room. At this age, their vision has improved significantly from newborn stage, allowing them to notice you when you are halfway across the room and to gaze at objects a few feet away, such as toys
. By around 3 months, babies also develop better eye coordination, enabling them to track moving objects and begin hand-eye coordination, such as swatting at things in front of them
. Their color vision is developing as well, and they start to perceive differences in color more clearly
. In summary, a 3-month-old infant can see clearly at least several feet away and recognize familiar faces and objects at that distance
