Images of Ophthalmology

Popular culture has always viewed eyes as things of beauty. But there’s more to the eye than the color of your irides. Advances in imaging technology have enabled us to see far more than could ever have been imagined. And on closer inspection, they’re still beautiful.

This patient was first diagnosed with a choroidal melanocytoma. The patient did not return to the clinic for three years until one month when he lost vision on and off several times a day. The flat melanocytoma had progressed to a large, mushroom-shaped tumor. The tumor’s location meant that radiotherapy was contraindicated. Enucleation was performed, and the tumor was confirmed to be uveal melanoma.

This patient presented to our clinic after a routine exam with a shopping center optometrist. The patient explained that the growth had been present since he was an infant and had changed very little throughout his life. The diagnosis was a non-malignant congenital anomaly of the iris and will be monitored every 6 months.

I have an extensive academic background in the life sciences, having studied forensic biology and human medical genetics in my time at Strathclyde and Glasgow Universities. My research, data presentation and bioinformatics skills plus my ‘wet lab’ experience have been a superb grounding for my role as a deputy editor at Texere Publishing. The job allows me to utilize my hard-learned academic skills and experience in my current position within an exciting and contemporary publishing company.

Michael Schubert

While obtaining degrees in biology from the University of Alberta and biochemistry from Penn State College of Medicine, I worked as a freelance science and medical writer. I was able to hone my skills in research, presentation and scientific writing by assembling grants and journal articles, speaking at international conferences, and consulting on topics ranging from medical education to comic book science. As much as I’ve enjoyed designing new bacteria and plausible superheroes, though, I’m more pleased than ever to be at Texere, using my writing and editing skills to create great content for a professional audience.
