Vitreoretinal surgery has advanced extensively from the first days of vitrectomy. During the last decade, new developments in intravitreal pharmacotherapy have created new opportunities to enhance the surgical outcomes of our patients. In this article, we review and discuss some of the supporting evidence of different pharmacotherapies that may be used as an adjunct to vitrectomy for select common etiologies. Triamcinolone acetonide, dexamethasone, and angiogenesis inhibitors are among the most commonly used drugs given their safety profile and proven efficacy. Other pharmaceuticals have also shown promising results in small studies. The adoption of individualized medical treatments prior, during, and after vitrectomy will continue to increase as new evidence supporting the benefit of pharmacotherapy as an adjunct to vitrectomy becomes available.
