extraocular m's the six voluntary muscles that move the eyeball: superior, inferior, middle, and lateral recti, and superior and inferior oblique muscles. See appendix 3-4. extrinsic muscle one that originates in another part than that of its insertion, as those originating outside the eye, which move the eyeball. fixation m's (fixator m's) accessory muscles that serve to steady a part. gluteal m's three muscles, the greatest, middle, and least, that extend, abduct, and rotate the thigh.
For each eye, six muscles work together to control eye position and movement. Two extraocular muscles, the medial rectus and lateral rectus, work together to control horizontal eye movements (Figure 8.1, left). Contraction of the medial rectus pulls the eye towards the nose (adduction or medial movement).
