This month’s image shows posterior staphyloma. Staphyloma is the thinning of the sclera, to which the underlying pigmented tissue adds its color. Posterior staphylomas are often congenital or they manifest extreme myopia.

Having edited several technical publications over the last decade, I crossed paths with quite a few of Texere's current team members, and I only ever heard them sing the company's praises. When an opportunity arose to join Texere, I jumped at the chance! With a background in literature, I love the company's ethos of producing genuinely engaging content, and the fact that it is so well received by our readers makes it even more rewarding.
