The Optical nerver or the Second Cranial nerve controls and relays information absorbed through the rods and cones of the eye. Eye movements (eye muscles), however, are controlled by several other cranial nerves including the Oculomotor, Abducens, and Trochlear nerves.
The nerve IV of the cranial nerves is the trochlear nerve. It is responsible for controlling the superior oblique muscle of the eye, which helps with downward and inward eye movements. It is the smallest cranial nerve in terms of the number of axons it contains.
The second cranial nerve is the optic nerve.
The oculomotor nerve or the third cranial nerve, trochlear or forth cranial nerve and abducent or the sixth cranial nerve carry signal to your eye. The optic nerve carry the signal from the eye to the brain. Vestibulocochlear or the eighth cranial nerve carry the signal from your ear to the brain.
The cranial nerve involved in raising the eyelids is the oculomotor nerve (cranial nerve III). For focusing the lens of the eye for accommodation, the oculomotor nerve controls the ciliary muscle.
its serves the eye and it is called the "Optic Nerve".
Cranial nerve III (CN3) is responsible for keeping the eye open. Cranial nerve VII (CN7) closes the eyelid.
the 6th cranial supply the lateral rectus muscle of the eye. It allow the eyeball to turn out. if you have the nerve palsy of this nerve, your eyeball cannot be turned out.
abducens nerve
The smallest cranial nerve is the trochlear nerve (CN IV). It is responsible for controlling the superior oblique muscle of the eye, which helps with downward and inward eye movement.
The second cranial nerve is the optic nerve, which tells the brain what the eye is seeing
vestibulocochlear nerve
