Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — speaking fees (48.7%), food and beverage and travel and lodging — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. Coopervision Inc. accounts for 64.9% of it on its own, with 14 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2022 at $12,733 and has fallen 83.2% since, to $2,140 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 114 payments — averaging $211.78 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
