About Me

Dr Merkley serves as the Chair of the Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences at UTMB. Dr Merkley, with more than 30 years of experience as a cataract, cornea and refractive surgeon, treats a wide range of eye conditions including cataracts, cornea/external diseases, and refractive errors.

“The exciting thing about refractive surgery is that new technologies continue to come forward as older technologies continue to improve. Our profession continues to find solutions for more people to improve and preserve vision functions through all stages of life”.
