Conditions and Symptoms That Can Be Assessed by Dr. Ayman Swar
Dr. Ayman Swar assesses conditions related to pediatric ophthalmology and strabismus. A diagnosis or suitable treatment plan cannot be confirmed based only on the appearance of the eyes. The child or patient needs an examination that assesses vision, eye alignment, eye movements, and whether another associated problem is present.

|
What Does It Mean for the Patient?
|
Action
|
|
Strabismus in Children
|
When one eye is noticed turning inward or outward, either continuously or intermittently, the examination helps determine the type of deviation and whether the condition requires follow-up, glasses, treatment for an associated problem such as amblyopia, or assessment for another procedure.

Strabismus Surgery
|
Some cases of strabismus may require surgical assessment after measuring the degree of deviation, examining eye movements, and reviewing the patient’s age and visual condition. The decision to perform surgery does not depend on the appearance of the eye alone, but on the results of the medical assessment.

|
Amblyopia
|
Strabismus may be associated with reduced vision in one eye. The examination helps assess visual acuity in each eye and determine whether the child needs follow-up or a treatment plan for amblyopia alongside strabismus assessment.

|
|
Pseudostrabismus
|
In some children, the eyes may appear misaligned even though their alignment is normal. An examination by a strabismus doctor can help distinguish true strabismus from pseudostrabismus and determine whether the child needs follow-up.

|
Pediatric Eye Examination
|
The examination helps assess vision and eye health when there is difficulty reading, excessive proximity to screens or books, recurrent headaches, poor visual focus, closing one eye, or tilting the head while looking.

Medical Note: The type of strabismus or the appropriate treatment cannot be determined based only on symptoms or the appearance of the eye. The doctor determines the diagnosis and suitable next step after examination and assessment of vision and eye movements.
About Dr. Ayman Swar
Dr. Ayman Swar is an Associate Consultant in Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus at Magrabi Health and works within the Strabismus and Pediatric Ophthalmology Unit. His practice focuses on assessing and treating conditions related to strabismus and pediatric eye problems, including cases that require assessment of eye alignment and movement or determining whether an apparent eye deviation requires follow-up or more specialized evaluation.
Dr. Ayman Swar’s specialty combines pediatric ophthalmology and strabismus surgery, which helps in assessing visual problems comprehensively, particularly when eye deviation is accompanied by suspected amblyopia or reduced vision. Determining the appropriate next step depends on examining the child, measuring vision, assessing eye movements, and evaluating the nature of the deviation rather than relying on the appearance of the eyes alone.
For parents looking for a strabismus doctor for a child with eye deviation, intermittent strabismus, suspected amblyopia, or unusual visual behavior, visiting the doctor helps move from observing symptoms at home to a direct medical assessment of the condition. After the examination, it can be determined whether the condition requires regular follow-up, correction of a vision problem, or assessment of other options related to strabismus according to the child’s condition.
Direct assessment is also important when parents cannot distinguish between true strabismus and pseudostrabismus, or when the deviation appears only at certain times, such as during fatigue or concentration. Therefore, the treatment plan is not based on photographs or observation at home alone, but on examination findings and individual assessment of each case.
