Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $6,145 of the $6,973 with a category attached, or 88.1%. It is spread thinly across 20 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 18.2% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $2,530 and has fallen 67.5% since, to $822 in 2025. Among optometrist clinicians in IL with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 5% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
Across 108 payments — averaging $64.57 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
