Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
The money is spread across several categories — food and beverage (48.3%), speaking fees and gifts — rather than concentrated in one kind of arrangement. 21 manufacturers reported payments, led by Coopervision Inc. at 32.5% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2024 at $7,292 and has fallen 86.6% since, to $977 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 92 payments — averaging $213.82 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
