UNSPSC 42294520: Ophthalmic lens holder

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is used as an ophthalmic lens holder. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901850.

UNSPSC 42294520 Ophthalmic lens holder is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The four most-recent opportunities posted under this code involve fiber splicing services (Suwannee Valley Electric Cooperative, RFP), broad medical supplies via cooperative purchasing (NASPO ValuePoint, RFP), handheld retinal screening devices and related clinical services (San Mateo Medical Center, RFP), and general law enforcement equipment (Sourcewell, RFP). None of these solicitations concerns ophthalmic lens holders as the code nominally describes them. The fiber-splicing procurement focuses on infrastructure maintenance and repair services across multiple categories of electric and telecommunications work; the NASPO and Sourcewell vehicles establish framework agreements for broader product families; and the San Mateo opportunity targets portable diagnostic imaging devices for ambulatory care. The mismatch between the code's stated scope and the actual work being solicited suggests the code is either underutilized for its nominal purpose or tagged inconsistently by issuing bodies in state and local procurement systems.

Geographic activity is limited and scattered. San Mateo Medical Center in California issued the most clinically focused opportunity, posting a request for handheld retinal screening devices and services due November 6, 2026; Suwannee Valley Electric Cooperative in Florida posted a fiber-splicing services RFP due November 13, 2026; Sourcewell in Minnesota and NASPO ValuePoint (sponsored by Idaho with national participation) are cooperative vehicles that do not represent single-jurisdiction procurement. No concentrated state or regional activity under the ophthalmic lens holder code is evident. Business development professionals evaluating this code should verify whether their ophthalmic products or services align with future state and local procurement pipelines, as the recent historical record under this specific commodity code does not demonstrate active, recurring demand.
