Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by food and beverage: $6,312 of the $7,542 with a category attached, or 83.7%. 19 manufacturers reported payments, led by Alcon at 30.9% of the total. Reporting peaked in 2023 at $2,133 and has fallen 56.5% since, to $929 in 2025. Among optometrist clinicians in TX 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 85 payments — averaging $88.73 each. Meals, travel, consulting and speaking fees, gifts and royalties reported by drug and device makers.
