Patient Reviews
Mar 02, 2023
Went through the 45 minute wait periods for a two minute exam for almost two years with no diagnosis for my eye problems following cataract surgery by Dr Merritt. Went to Wilmington Eye and was diagnosed with with scar tissue around the eye. Simple procedure cleared up my eye problem after two years of discomfort. Wilmington Eye ,in my opinion ,is a much better choice.
