    Study Notes

    • Trochlea and six extraocular muscles: Levator palpebrae superioris, Superior oblique, Superior rectus, Medial rectus, Inferior oblique, and Inferior rectus
    • Medial and lateral rectus are the only muscles acting in the X-axis, important for clinical testing
    • Superior and inferior rectus, oblique muscles, are the only muscles that elevate the eye (look up) in the Y-axis
    • Superior rectus and inferior oblique muscles must be isolated for clinical testing by aligning muscle pull with the gaze of the orbit
    • Superior oblique and inferior rectus muscles are the only muscles that depress the eye (look down) in the Y-axis
    • Innervation of extraocular muscles: LR6 SO4 AO3 (mnemonic)
    • Optic nerve, a sensory nerve, transmits visual information from the eye to the brain
    • Ophthalmic division of Trigeminal nerve, a sensory nerve, provides sensation to the eyeball and surrounding area
    • Motor nerves, Oculomotor [III], Trochlear [IV], Abducens [VI], innervate the extraocular muscles and the eye
    • Ophthalmic artery, a branch of the internal carotid artery, supplies blood to the eyeball and orbit structures
    • Two venous channels, superior and inferior ophthalmic veins, drain blood from the orbit and eye.
