UNSPSC 42183022: Ophthalmic visuometers

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a piece of apparatus used for determining range of vision in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901811.

UNSPSC 42183022 Ophthalmic visuometers (Commodity) does not align with the state and local procurement activity currently tagged under this code. The recent opportunities associated with the code are for precision high-voltage test equipment, spectrophotometers used in waste-to-energy facilities, and broad law-enforcement equipment procurement — none of which fall within the ophthalmic vision-testing scope the code nominally describes. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the source records or mission creep in how this code is being applied in practice. Based on the available recent-opportunities block, this code shows no relevant activity for vendors focused on ophthalmic visuometers or related eye-testing equipment.

The three posted opportunities span utilities, municipal solid-waste operations, and a multi-state cooperative purchasing vehicle, but none involve ophthalmic devices. Kissimmee Utility Authority issued an IFB for a high-voltage capacitance measurement module under solicitation 26046JG (response deadline September 22, 2026, contract value under $250,000); the City of Tampa Solid Waste & Environmental Program Management issued an RFQ for a spectrophotometer replacement under 26P00372 (response deadline June 12, 2026); and Sourcewell, on behalf of multiple Washington-state counties and other participating entities, issued an RFP for law-enforcement equipment (response deadline June 16, 2026). The absence of any spectacles, phoropters, autorefractors, or related vision-assessment instruments in the recent postings reinforces that this code is either misapplied or dormant for its intended commodity class.
