Jennifer H. Merritt, M.D. is certified by the American Board of Ophthalmology and American Academy of Ophthalmology. Dr. Merritt received her Bachelor of Science with honors, cum laude, from Furman University. She completed her Doctor of Medicine degree from the Medical University of South Carolina, graduating in the top 10% of her class. She performed her internship in general surgery at MUSC and completed her ophthalmology residency at MUSC's Storm Eye Institute. She was elected to the prestigious Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Society and Phi Beta Kappa Honor Society. At Coastal Eye Group, Dr. Merritt practices general ophthalmology and oculoplastic care, including BOTOX treatments and cosmetic eyelid surgery, in our Little River office. COSMETIC SERVICES Plastic surgery of the eyelids can help patients see more clearly as well as look younger and rejuvenated. By removing excess tissue and tightening the skin, cosmetic and functional eyelid surgery can not only increase the visual field but also "turn back time" by reducing the appearance of wrinkles, lines and sagging skin that make you look angry or tired. Oculoplastic Surgery Ophthalmic plastic surgery, or oculoplastics, is a subspecialty of ophthalmology that deals with disorders of the eyelids, including tumors, orbits (bones around the eyes), and lacrimal (tear) system. Eyelid tumors and growths may be removed as an office procedure.

Great!

As I'm relatively a new patient Dr. Merritt and her staff are very detailed and thorough. They ask pinpoint questions to us as the patient to gain understanding of our symptoms. Then based on our response they proceed with a very thorough examination and evaluation to determine the proper care. As a senior aged person with the need of professional eye care I'm very satisfied. They exemplify a strong sense of caring for the wellness of me as a patient. That in its self goes a long way. Hats off to all of the team with Dr. Merritt!!!

Absolutely a very caring Doctor and staff

I went in experiencing vision problems, mostly at night. The office in Little River got me in a few days later. Dr. Merritt and staff were very thorough in the examination. I was scheduled for cataract surgery a few weeks after my appointment. I have had both eyes done and the experience was very good. Kudos to Dr. Merritt, office staff and surgical center staff.

Dr Merritt was knowledgeable and thorough.

Generally excellent. I wish the staff would introduce themselves when they first interact. I had to ask each their name. I did however have my visit on a day they were down three staff.
I felt I received quality care this visit and will going forward.

Dr Merritt made me feel at ease and I was very comfortable discussing my diagnosis with her.

Wonderful experience with doctor. She was very knowledgeable and confident in her care and recommendations. She took her time and explained my diagnosis throughly.

Excellent treatment

I didn’t know how much better I would see until after the cataract surgeries. I would have this done even sooner. Vision is brighter and more colorful.
