Enhancing the outcomes of diabetic vitrectomy with pharmacological adjuvants.

This editorial offers insights from a minireview by Venkatesh , who explored pharmacological adjuvants for diabetic vitrectomy. Specifically, they synthesized current knowledge and evaluated the efficacy of various adjunctive therapies in improving the outcomes of diabetic retinopathy and managing associated complications. Herein, we highlight the key roles of pharmacological adjuvants in optimizing surgical techniques, minimizing intraoperative challenges, and enhancing postoperative recovery. We further discuss the potential implications of this approach for clinical practice and future research directions in this evolving field. Overall, this editorial underscores the importance of incorporating pharmacological adjuvants into standard diabetic vitrectomy care to improve surgical outcomes and thus patients' quality of life.
