Core Tip
Core Tip: Incorporating pharmacological adjuvants into diabetic vitrectomy can significantly enhance surgical outcomes and postoperative recovery. These therapies reduce intraoperative complications like bleeding and improve surgical precision while minimizing postoperative issues, including inflammation and fibrosis. Therefore, the incorporation of these adjunctive treatments into routine clinical practice is crucial for improving patient care, lowering complication rates, and enhancing long-term visual outcomes for those undergoing diabetic vitrectomy.
