Clinical comparison of epiretinal membrane surgery using Sharkskin forceps versus conventional forceps

The use of Sharkskin forceps in ERM surgery demonstrated comparable clinical outcomes to conventional forceps, while causing less retinal damage. These findings suggest that Sharkskin forceps can be safely and effectively utilized in vitreoretinal interface surgery.
