Eyes Big, Little Wide Apart, Doesn't Grip Hands When Held To Him. What Question To Ask Pediatrician ?

I am concerned with my 2 month old nephew. My sister mention that he is very quiet unless he is hungry. I saw a photo of the baby and noticed that his eyes are a bit big and a little wide apart. In the video my sister sent me, he doesn't seem to respond her when she plays with him. Other family members noticed that he doesn't grip your hand when you hold them to him. I don't know how to tell my sister and what question to ask her paediatrician. Could you please help?
