About Me

Dr. Eren Guner is a pediatric ophthalmologist who cares for children with strabismus, cataracts, glaucoma, and eyelid disorders, and also treats adults with complex strabismus. He earned his medical degree from Hacettepe University in Ankara and completed ophthalmology residency at Istanbul University. He then completed consecutive fellowships in Pediatric Ophthalmology and Adult Strabismus at UT Southwestern in Dallas and at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center. His approach is family-centered—he explains findings and options clearly so parents and caregivers know what to expect before, during, and after treatment.

Dr. Guner’s clinical interests include strabismus surgery, pediatric cataract and glaucoma care, and management of congenital ptosis and other pediatric eyelid conditions. He is engaged in research on pediatric uveitis and retinal disease and has been recognized with a Best of Show Award at the AAPOS annual meeting. He welcomes collaborative care with pediatricians, optometrists, and therapists to support each child’s vision development.
