Six rotational axes about which the extraocular muscles turn the eye and the three rotational axes about which the vestibular semicircular canals measure head-movement.
32.
Collectively, Pitx2 first acts to prevent the apoptosis of the extraocular muscles followed by acting as the myogenic programmer of the extraocular muscle cells.
33.
The movements of the extraocular muscles take place under the influence of a system of extraocular muscle pulleys, soft tissue pulleys in the orbit.

35.
From here, a signal is relayed to the extraocular muscles to allow one s gaze to fixate on one object as the head moves.

37.
The implant, along with the attached, visible ocular prosthesis, can be moved by intact extraocular muscles that will track or move simultaneously with the other eye.
38.
Eyes may also be less able to adapt to variable weakness, because extraocular muscles use visual rather than proprioceptive ( body position-sensing ) cues for fine-tuning.
39.
The infiltrative exophthalmos frequently encountered has been explained by postulating that the thyroid gland and the extraocular muscles share a common antigen which is recognized by the antibodies.
40.
This higher level of activity may predispose them to fatigue in MG . Additionally, some reports indicate that there may be fewer acetylcholine receptors in extraocular muscles versus limb muscles.
