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.

Excellent doctor and communicator

Performed cataract surgery on both eyes. Both surgeries went without incident. Right eye has perfect vision. Left eye surgery performed yesterday is close to the right eye already. I would highly recommend Doctor Merritt to anyone needing cataract surgery.

Overall I was impressed

Dr Merritt had been recommended by a former patient. No question in my mind that I will use her as my surgeon. I unfortunately did not ask all the questions and will have to find out if I am a candidate for the lens insertion as well. It would be wonderful not to wear glasses if it’s possible. Could she look at my chart and let me know.

Very pleased with the whole experience.

I have a great deal of confidence in Dr Merritt as she treated me for a major eye infection several years ago. Her staff and technicians are excellent. They all are very professional, friendly and conscientious.

I've been with Dr Merritt since 2008 and can't imagine changing.

Listens, asks the right questions, and is thorough performing exams. Two perfect cataract surgeries and excellent ongoing care.
