Human eyes begin to develop about 22 days after fertilization! Between weeks 10-12, the eyelids are formed, and are closed; they remain closed until week 27-28, when the fetus can open and close the eyelids. So, the fetus (unborn baby) can see, though it's pretty dark inside there! When they're born, babies can see light and movement, but they can't focus on anything or follow movement with their eyes.
