Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 97.6% of the total across 102 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. 17 manufacturers reported payments, led by Bausch & Lomb Americas Inc. at 27.0% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $1,768 and has fallen 71.0% since, to $512 in 2025. Among optometrist clinicians in FL with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 10% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
Across 102 payments — averaging $71.24 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
