What else can I help you with?
What muscle turns the eye inferior and medially?
The inferior rectus muscle is responsible for turning the eye downward and medially.
Turns the eye medially?
Eye movements are accomplished by the Extraocular Muscles. The muscle that moves the eye medially is the Medial Rectus.
What eye muscle control the movement of the eye?
A total of six muscle move each eyeball, 4 rectus muscels and 2 obliques. The superior, inferior, lateral and medial rectal muscle all pull the eye to be looking more in ther own direction. The superior oblique pulls the eye to look down and laterally and the inferior oblique pull the eye to look um and medialy.
What extrinsic muscle Turns eye up and laterally is called what extrinsic muscle?
Inferior Oblique Human & Physiology Lab Manual, Cat Edition 10th Edition p365
Turns the eye superiorly and medially?
Superior Rectus
What extrinsic eye muscle turns the eye up and laterally?
Superior Rectus allows you to look Up & In, whiel the Superior Oblique allows you to look Up & Out.
What moves eyeball medially?
The medial rectus muscle is responsible for moving the eyeball medially by contracting. This muscle is one of the extraocular muscles that control eye movements.
What extrinsic eye muscle would cause lateral strabismus of the right eye?
lateral rectus
Define an extrinsic muscle of the eye?
external eye muscles 6 extrinsic eye muscles 4-rectus (straight) muscles originate from the anualar ring superior (3), inferrrior (3) , medial(3) lateral (6)- move eye up and down medially and laterally 2-oblique muscles superior (4) and inferrior oblique (3)look side>side: one eye is elevated/the others depressed
What is the condition caused by unequal tension exerted by the extrinsic eye muscle?
strabismus
Why is it more of a strain on the intrinsic and extrinsic eye muscle to look at the close objects than at far objects?
extrinsic muscles are strained
What nerve governs most of the extrinsic eye muscle?
Trochlear Nerve innervates Superior Oblique(extrinsic eye muscle)Oculomotor Nerve innervates Inferior Oblique, Superior Rectus, Inferior Rectus, and Medial Rectus (which are all extrinsic eye muscles) along with Ciliary Body, and the Iris (which are both intrinsic eye muscles)Abducens Nerve innervates Lateral Rectus(extrinsic eye muscle)
