Payments from drug & device makers

What this record shows

Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 99.4% of the total across 111 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. It is spread thinly across 21 manufacturers, the largest accounting for just 18.3% — the pattern of someone who eats at a lot of different presentations. 2025 is the largest year on record at $1,631, 2.7 times the $596 reported in 2019. Among optometrist clinicians in VA 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.

Who reported the general payments

Companies are grouped under their corporate parent — a single manufacturer often files under several CMS reporting entities. Research and ownership payments are counted separately and are not in this table.

What the payments were tied to

Products named in the reported payments. Only payments of $100 or more are attributed here — the typical reported payment nationally is a meal worth about $16, and listing those product-by-product would be noise.

How this compares

$4,424 in reported general payments places this provider in the 90th percentile of 1,230 optometrist providers in Virginia.
