Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — consulting fees (59.2%), food and beverage and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc. accounts for 81.7% of it on its own, with 5 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2024 at $2,436 and has fallen 95.8% since, to $101 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 45 payments — averaging $112.65 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
