UNSPSC 42183400: Ophthalmic cameras

In this classification, this class includes, products, components, accessories, and supplies, utilized in camera based ophthalmic medical procedures.

UNSPSC 42183400 Ophthalmic cameras is a Class code representing specialized optical measurement and analysis equipment purchased by state and local governments. Recent solicitations under this code show significant misalignment between the nominal code scope and actual procurement activity: the three most recent opportunities posted include a spectrophotometer for wastewater analysis (City of Tampa), law enforcement equipment framework (Sourcewell cooperative), and career technical education instructional resources (Klein ISD), none of which fall within ophthalmic imaging or eye-care diagnostics. The code shows little relevant recent activity in its core domain of eye-care instrumentation at the state and local level.

Issuing bodies across the recent postings span municipal departments (City of Tampa Solid Waste & Environmental Program Management), state-level cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative), and school districts (Klein ISD, Harris County, Texas). The geographic spread includes Florida, Minnesota (Sourcewell coordinating on behalf of participating entities in Washington state and beyond), and Texas. The Tampa opportunity (RFQ 26P00372, due June 12, 2026) sought a Heck DR4900 Spectrophotometer for the McKay Bay Waste to Energy facility—a direct replacement of existing equipment—with firm pricing required for sixty days and FOB Destination delivery. No posted opportunities in the source actually solicit ophthalmic cameras or related eye-care diagnostic equipment; the code classification appears to reflect data entry or taxonomy mismatches rather than genuine procurement demand in this commodity family.
