Muscles of the eyes. The are six muscles of the eyes responsible for movement of the eye. These muscles function in Agonist and Antagonist pairs enabling us to move our eyeballs in the cardinal directions, up, down, left and right. There are six muscles which are responsible for controlling the movement of the eyeballs.
Simultaneously, the intrinsic muscles of the eye serve to focus the eye and control the amount of light entering it. Each eye is held in place by three pairs of taut, elastic muscles (extrinsic muscles) that constantly balance the pull of the others.The superior rectus acts to roll the eyeball back and up, but it is opposed by the inferior rectus.he eye muscle is the fastest reacting muscle of the whole body, contracting in less than 1/100th of a second. In fact, the eye muscles work together to carry out no less than seven coordinated movements and allow the eye to track many different kinds of moving object.
