Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by consulting fees: $367,989 of the $507,719 with a category attached, or 72.5%. 25 manufacturers reported payments, led by Alcon at 55.3% of the total. 2025 is the largest year on record at $144,877, more than ten times the $1,019 reported in 2019. Among ophthalmology clinicians in CA 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 709 payments — averaging $716.11 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
