Congenital fibrosis of the extraocular muscles
Background : Congenital fibrosis of the extraocular muscles (CFEOM) describes a group of rare congenital eye movement disorders that result from the dysfunction of all or part of the oculomotor (CN 3) and the trochlear (CN 4) nerves, and/or the muscles ...

Extraocular muscle enlargement
AbstractExtraocular muscle enlargement can occur secondary to a range of orbital and systemic diseases. Although the most common cause of extraocular muscle enlargement is thyroid eye disease, a range of other inflammatory, infective, neoplastic, and vascular conditions can alter the size and shape of the extraocular muscles.

Analysis of Motion and Internal Loading in Redundantly Actuated Human Eyeball
The 3-DOF rotational motion of the human eyeball is created by using six extraocular muscles. For the force-redundant system of the human eyeball, a load distribution algorithm is proposed to investigate the dynamics and intrinsic load distribution of ...

Functional characterization of orbicularis oculi and extraocular muscles [PDF]
The orbicularis oculi are the sphincter muscles of the eyelids and are involved in modulating facial expression. They differ from both limb and extraocular muscles (EOMs) in their histology and biochemistry. Weakness of the orbicularis oculi muscles is a

Extraocular muscle sampled volume in Graves' orbitopathy using 3-T fast spin-echo MRI with iterative decomposition of water and fat sequences [PDF]
Background: Current magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques for measuring extraocular muscle (EOM) volume enlargement are not ideally suited for routine follow-up of Graves’ ophthalmopathy (GO) because the difficulty of segmenting the muscles at ...
