Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
Almost everything reported here is food and beverage — 92.6% of the total across 137 separate payments, which is the pattern of a clinician who attends manufacturer presentations rather than one with a consulting arrangement. 14 manufacturers reported payments, led by Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc. at 24.1% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2024 at $1,928 and has fallen 62.0% since, to $733 in 2025. Among optometrist 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 137 payments — averaging $43.57 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
