Converge eyes-co-contract medial recti
Converge eyes-co-contract medial recti
Focus lens- ciliary body relaxation
Limit light- Pupil constriction
- Binocular Image processing is to geniculate and then cortex
- Frontal eye-field of cerebral cortex receives visual imagery from the calcarine.
- The frontal eye fields project to the abducens nucleus and 3rd nerve nucleus for horizontal gaze.
- Accommodation requires co-contraction of the medial recti muscles via the 3rd nerve.
- The pupils constrict via the Edinger-Westphal nucleus to ciliary ganglia.
- The lens thickens by Edinger-West-phal relaxation of the ciliary body input from ciliary ganglion.
