UNSPSC 42183502: Ophthalmic euthyscopes

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a miniature photographic apparatus applicable to an endoscopic device, and including a casing, at least one light source device and at least one viewing lens device used in the testing of eyes in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 900630.

UNSPSC 42183502 Ophthalmic euthyscopes, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The three recent opportunities tagged under this code involve precision high-voltage test equipment modules, spectrophotometry instruments for wastewater treatment monitoring, and a cooperative purchasing framework for law enforcement equipment — none of which fall within ophthalmic or eye-examination instrumentation. The mismatch between the code's stated purpose and the work actually being procured suggests either miscategorization at the point of solicitation or infrequent and scattered use of this code by issuing bodies.

The recent opportunities originate from diverse issuing bodies: Kissimmee Utility Authority (a municipal utility), the City of Tampa's Solid Waste & Environmental Program Management division, and Sourcewell (a Minnesota local government cooperative serving multiple state and county jurisdictions across the United States and Canada). Geographically, the activity is concentrated in Florida, with a secondary presence in the multi-state Sourcewell cooperative framework. The Kissimmee Utility Authority's IFB 26046JG sought a single precision high-voltage capacitance and power/dissipation factor measurement module with a contract value under $250,000 and a response date of September 22, 2026. The City of Tampa's RFQ 26-P-00372 requested a replacement Heck DR4900 Spectrophotometer for its McKay Bay Waste to Energy facility with quotes due June 12, 2026. Neither opportunity reflects procurement patterns typical of the ophthalmic euthyscope code, and no recent activity indicates active state and local demand for eye-examination instruments under this classification.
