Innervation: Upper CN III
Blood supply: lateral muscular branch of ophthalmic artery
EOM structure
Nerve fibers to muscle fibers : 1:3 to 1:5
Outer orbital layer and inner global layer
Sherringtons Law
Increased innervation of a given EOM is accompanied by a reciprocal decrease in the innervation of its antagonist
Herings Law
When the eyes move into a gaze direction, there is a simultaneous and equal increase in innervation of the yoke muscles for that direction.
AC/A ratio
Accommodative convergence / accommodation
AC/A
Development
Between 8 and 15 weeks, there are 2-2.5 million retinal ganglion cells
Monofixation Syndrom
Presence of peripheral fusion but absence of bifoveal fusion due to a central scotoma
Often with esotropia
Any amount of gross stereopsis confirms presence of peripheral fusion
Anomalous Retinal Correspondence
Fovea of fixating eye is common with peripheral area of other eye
Paradoxical diplopia of ARC persists after strab surgery
