This paper analyzes Russian and foreign researches evaluating the influence of neurobiological, clinical and environmental factors on the development of visual attention in preterm infants. The results of modern studies on this issue are ambiguous. A number of studies revealed delay in visual processing in premature infants in comparison with normative group. At the same time, there are data on accelerated development of visual functions in children with prematurity due to a longer exposure to sensory stimulation in the environment. It was also shown that staying newborns in intensive care units significantly affects the processes of corticogenesis. The most significant social factors are parents' socioeconomic status, their psychological features and styles of interaction with their child.

Key words: prematurity, visual attention, cognitive functions, early development, early intervention, preschool age,, eye-tracking
