Health Entrance 2-EOM Flashcards
the action of a muscle referred to eye movements as a result of its
contraction
how can muscle actions be analyzed? by considering _______ applied to the globe
vector of force
waht is the major moving force of a muscle
primary action
what are the additional forces based on the muscles orientation
secondary action
what are the functional origins of the eom, mucolofibroelastic tissues located posterior to tenon’s fascia
extraocular pulleys
what is the movement of one eye along one of the globe’s axis
duction
what are roations along the horizontal x axis
supraduction (elevatoin) and infraduction (depression)
what are rotations along the vertical z axis
adduction (inwards and abduction (outwards
what are both eyes moving towards the nose called
convergence
what are boy eyes moving outwards called
divergence
what is the movement of both eyes by the same distance and in the same direction
version
what is a pair of muscles that pulls one eye in the opposite directoin
antagonists
what is a pair of muscles that pulls one eye in the same direction
synergists
what is the increased contraction of an eom that is normally assoicated by dimished contraction of its antagonistic muscle
sherrington law of reciprocal innervation
what is the movement of one eye along the y axis )(run through center of the eye, through pupil)
torsion
waht is turning the upper part of your globe towards your nose
intorsion
what is turning the upper part of your globe towards your ear
extorsion
what happens when the MR is stimulated
adduction
what happens when the LR is stimualted
abduction
which muscles are stimulated for a left lateral gaze
RMR and LLR
what muscles are stimualated for a right lateral gaze
RLR LML
why are the vertical recti muscles more complcated
the walls of the orbit are not parallel to each other and the ir and sr are angled laterally at about 23 degrees from the sagittal plane
what happens when the SR is stimulated
elevation
what happens when the IR is stimulated
depression
what are the secondary actions of the SR
adduction and intorsion
what are the secondarya ctions of the IR
adduction and extorsion
if the SR was working in isolation, how would the eye be positioned
up, out, and rotated inwards
if the IR was working in isolation, how would the eye be positioned
down, out, and rotated outwards
what would the primary action of the So be
intorsion
