What this record shows
This record is dominated by speaking fees: $180,725 of the $233,157 with a category attached, or 77.5%. Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc. accounts for 99.4% of it on its own, with 3 other manufacturers making up the rest. 2025 is the largest year on record at $117,421, more than ten times the $34 reported in 2019. Among optometrist clinicians in NY 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.
