I visited Dr. Sara Mahmoud with my daughter because of suspected lazy eye. The examination was organized, and the doctor explained that pediatric eye treatment requires commitment and follow-up and that the plan differs depending on the child’s age and examination results. We left the visit understanding the next steps.

We visited Dr. Sara Mahmoud because my son was tilting his head while watching television. The doctor paid attention to the details and asked about his behavior while reading and playing, then explained the relationship between head position, eye movements, and squint in some cases.

I was worried that my child might have squint, especially when tired or focusing on something close. Dr. Sara Mahmoud examined both eyes and explained when the misalignment needs follow-up and when the child may need glasses or additional examinations. The experience was comfortable and clear.

I booked with Dr. Sara Mahmoud at the Cairo branch because my daughter was experiencing weak vision at school. The doctor treated her calmly and explained the importance of eye examinations for children rather than relying only on the parents’ observations or the child’s complaints.

MA

I visited Dr. Sara Mahmoud with my son after noticing a slight misalignment in one of his eyes while focusing. The doctor examined his eye movements, explained the difference between true squint and pseudostrabismus, and clarified that determining the plan requires a children’s vision examination and organized follow-up.
