A child can be born blind due to a variety of factors, including genetic conditions, prenatal exposure to infections (such as rubella or toxoplasmosis), or environmental influences. Certain hereditary disorders, like retinitis pigmentosa, can lead to vision impairment from birth. Additionally, developmental issues in the eyes or brain, such as optic nerve hypoplasia, can also result in congenital blindness. In some cases, the exact cause remains unknown.
