AMERICAN SOCIETY OF CATARACT & REFRACTIVE SURGERY
Filers whose employer field grouped to OPHTHALMOLOGIST sent $371,965 in itemized gifts to EYEPAC POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE FOR AMERICAN SOCIETY OF CATARACT AND REFRACTIVE SURGERY (C00171504) across 2,264 contribution lines. Ophthalmologist as stored text totals $4,566,702 on every committee in this table; 8.1% of that book sits here. FEC.gov is the source. Independent expenditures stay outside $371,965.
Key figures
- EYEPAC received $371,965 from Ophthalmologist-coded individual contributions across 2,264 itemized gifts.
- The Ophthalmologist grouping totals $4,566,702, so this committee accounts for about 8.1% of that labeled money.
- 2,264 lines average about $164 each; that mean is arithmetic on the packet, not a typical gift.
- OPHTHALMOLOGIST is FEC stored text (a medical-specialty occupation/employer string, not a board-certification roll), not a unique-donor census.
- Figures are FEC itemized individual contributions, not independent expenditures or USAspending awards.
The Ophthalmologist × EYEPAC overlap
LobbyVault stores employer/industry strings separately from committees. Crossing them for Ophthalmologist and EYEPAC yields $371,965. That is 2,264 itemized lines. The figure is not a committee disbursement and not a company political budget.
Keep $4,566,702 on the Ophthalmologist hub and keep C00171504 for receipts from every employer. Only the overlap is $371,965. About 8.1% of the grouping sits here; $4,194,737 (91.9%) does not.
Because the grouping is a medical-specialty occupation/employer string, not a board-certification roll, the cell is a text match. Household members and former workers can reuse a workplace or title. The Commission does not audit those claims on this aggregate.
Ophthalmologist is job-like form text
On FEC Form 3, employer and occupation are typed fields. OPHTHALMOLOGIST survived grouping as Ophthalmologist. That is not a Dunn-style firm ID and not a donor page. People who typed a longer legal name sit elsewhere.
For a job string, the usual error is treating $4,566,702 as a company political budget. $4,566,702 is summed itemized individual receipts that matched this text. $371,965 is the slice that also matched C00171504. The 8.1% ratio is $371,965 divided by $4,566,702. Other committee joins for OPHTHALMOLOGIST are not listed in this packet; they collectively hold $4,194,737. Citing EYEPAC as if it were the Ophthalmologist lifetime total would overstate this cell by $4,194,737.

Questions
- How much did Ophthalmologist-coded filers give EYEPAC?
- $371,965 is the itemized-individual total for OPHTHALMOLOGIST at EYEPAC POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE FOR AMERICAN SOCIETY OF CATARACT AND REFRACTIVE SURGERY. Volume: 2,264 contributions. Source FEC.gov. PAC spending and unitemized gifts are outside the cell. The all-committee Ophthalmologist total remains $4,566,702.
- Is this an ophthalmology association treasury gift?
- The grouping is a medical-specialty occupation/employer string, not a board-certification roll, not a verified roster. 2,264 itemized lines produced $371,965 at C00171504. Ascrs membership dues, an optometrist bucket, or ophthalmologist as a clinic treasury. Cite FEC.gov for the underlying receipts.
- What share of Ophthalmologist FEC money went to EYEPAC?
- C00171504 holds $371,965 of the $4,566,702 stored for Ophthalmologist, roughly 8.1%. The leftover $4,194,737 is other recipients on the Ophthalmologist hub, not this join. FEC.gov is the source for $371,965, 2,264 contributions, and committee C00171504 in the Ophthalmologist × EYEPAC cell. The all-committee grouping total stored for this string is $4,566,702.
- Why does this join list 2,264 contributions?
- Line count 2,264 and dollars $371,965 should be cited together. Omitting volume hides whether $164 is a small-dollar mean or a large-line mean. Unique donors are unpublished here. FEC.gov is the source for $371,965, 2,264 contributions, and committee C00171504 in the Ophthalmologist × EYEPAC cell. The all-committee grouping total stored for this string is $4,566,702.
FEC.gov aggregates of itemized individual contributions grouped by employer/industry and recipient committee. Not independent expenditures.
