What this record shows

Johnson & Johnson Surgical Vision, Inc. accounts for 63.7% of it on its own, with 26 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2020 at $12,923 and has fallen 99.6% since, to $50 in 2025. Among ophthalmology clinicians in MD 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

$40,721 in reported general payments places this provider in the 90th percentile of 493 ophthalmology providers in Maryland.
