It's been known for some time that ASD children have an issue with holding eye contact. There are many studies and books on this issue.
Now, they are finding out that an ASD diagnosis could be made in infants as young as 2 months old by using an eye contact test.
Fox news Story on Autism and Eye contact in Infants
From the story:

were found to show declines in how long they looked at the caregiver's eyes, starting around ages 2 months to 6 months.
Interesting.
