Patient Reviews
Jun 02, 2022
I’ve lived with ptosis in my right eyelid my entire life. Recently it got much worse to the point it was partially covering my pupil. Dr Merbs was recommended by my retina specialist. The surgery went very smoothly and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the results. Surgery was 2 weeks ago, stitches were removed yesterday and my eyes look similar now for the first time!! Thanks to Dr Merbs!!
