I don't know about Meyer lemons specifically.
When our indoor lemon and lime trees started losing a lot of leaves, the research I found said possible causes were BOTH too little water or too much water, which was extremely frustrating to say the least!
I started measuring how much water I give them, and also instituted 'water Wednesdays' - a specific day to water. As long as the watering is pretty regular, the trees don't drop a lot of leaves. I don't think they get as much sunlight as they really need, but until we have a greenhouse, it's the best we can do.
They're about 7 years old. The lemon has been giving us about a lemon a year for 4 years. This year we've just harvested one, and the tree has 3 others in various stages. The lime tree has set some tiny little fruit, but never kept them past that stage.
Best of luck!
