Scientists/Doctors say that a baby can in fact see light in the womb, only if it's a bright enough light...
There's studies that have been done where a Father would take a flashlight and press it to the Mother's stomach. From there he would begin moving it around her stomach and the baby would follow it with a series of kicks and punches. Babies can be interactive still while within the womb -- at a certain age.
From the time a child's retinas form and they are able to see, they can and do see light -- keep in mind however that the light DOES have to be fairly bright... and it certainly won't ever be bright enough to blind the baby.

yes! if you direct a beam of light towards your belly, the baby will want to turn away from the bright light. this has been proved through observation during ultrasound.

yes, they will turn toward the light in the final months and if the light is real bright they will cover their eyes with their hands. you can read about it at babyzone.com
