Neurological Exam This nerve carries vision to the brain. A visual test may be given and the patient's eye may be examined with a special light. Cranial nerve III (oculomotor). This nerve is responsible for pupil size and certain movements of the eye.

How the Eyes See The iris controls the amount of light entering the eye by dilating or constricting the pupil. In bright light, for example, the pupils shrink to the size of a pinhead to prevent too much light from entering. In dim light, the pupil enlarges to allow more light to enter the eye. Light then reaches the crystalline lens.

Oculomotor nerve The oculomotor nerve is the third cranial nerve. It enters the orbit via the superior orbital fissure and innervates muscles that enable most movements of the eye and that raise the eyelid.here are two nuclei for the oculomotor nerve: 1  The oculomotor nucleus originates at the level of the superior colliculus. 2  The muscles it controls are the striated muscle in levator palpebrae superioris and all extraocular muscles except for the superior oblique muscle and the lateral rectus muscle.

DKA-Neuro- Cranial Nerves Oculomotor Nerve (CN-III): Motor to the muscles that move the eye except the superior oblique and the lateral rectus. It also. innervates the levator palpebrae superioris muscle (elevation of the eyelid), the sphincter pupillae. (pupillary constriction and accommodation), and ciliary muscles.

Abducens nerve From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. The abducens nerve or abducent nerve (the sixth cranial nerve, also called the sixth nerve or simply CNVI) is a somatic efferent nerve that, in humans, controls the movement of a single muscle, the lateral rectus muscle of the eye.he abducens nerve leaves the brainstem at the junction of the pons and the medulla, medial to the facial nerve. In order to reach the eye, it runs upward (superiorly) and then bends forward (anteriorly). The nerve enters the subarachnoid space when it emerges from the brainstem.

Cranial Nerve Innervation of Eye Muscles Here is an easy way to remember the cranial nerves that innervate the muscles of the eyes. CN IV innervates the lateral rectus muscle of the eye. This muscle abducts the eye, the nerve then is called abducens. CN VI innervates the superior rectus muscle of the eye.This muscle goes through a pulley called the trochlea, so this nerve is called the trochlear nerve.his muscle abducts the eye, the nerve then is called abducens. CN VI innervates the superior rectus muscle of the eye.

- Eye movements are controlled by muscles innervated by cranial nerves III, IV and VI. In this chapter, the testing of these cranial nerves will be discussed. The most common symptom of damage to these nerves is double vision.

What does the ciliary muscle of the eye control? The ciliary muscles are sphincter muscle that controls the thickness of the lens. Each eye has a ciliary muscle around the lens of the eye. When the muscle contracts the lens gets compressed, and therefore thicker, meaning that it refracts light more (and shortens the focal distance).

Sensory Processes The pigmented area around the pupil is the iris. Along with supplying a person's eye color, the iris is responsible for acting as the pupil's stop, or sphincter. Two layers of iris muscles contract or dilate the pupil to change the amount of light that enters the eye. Behind the pupil is the lens, which is similar in shape and function to a camera lens.

Muscles, Nerves, and Blood Vessels of the Eyes Several muscles working together move the eye, allowing people to look in different directions without moving their head. Each eye muscle is stimulated by a specific cranial nerve. The optic nerve (a cranial nerve), which carries impulses from the retina to the brain, as well as other cranial nerves, which transmit impulses to each eye muscle, travel through the orbit (the bony cavity that surrounds the eyeball).

- Ophthalmic nerve. The ophthalmic nerve (CN V: V1) is one of the three branches of the trigeminal nerve, the fifth cranial nerve. It carries sensory information from the face/scalp and sympathetic fibers for pupil dilation in the long ciliary branch of the nasociliary nerve. 1 Structure 1.1 Branches.

Oculomotor nerve The nerve also contains fibers that innervate the muscles that enable pupillary constriction and accommodation (ability to focus on near objects as in reading). The oculomotor nerve is derived from the basal plate of the embryonic midbrain. Cranial nerves IV and VI also participate in control of eye movement.

Pupillary reflex In medicine, the pupillary reflex or pupillary light reflex is the reduction. of pupil size in response to light. It is a normal response and dependent on the function of the optic nerves. and oculomotor nerves.

Cranial Nerve Palsies There are 12 specialized cranial nerves that course through the brain and control various functions and sensations of the head and neck. Four of these nerves are involved with eye and eyelid movements: CN III (3rd), CN IV (4th), CN VI (6th), and CN VII (7th).

- The size of the pupils and the pupillary light reflex is important in the. examination of the unconscious patient (Fig. 1). Often in coma from metabolic causes. the pupillary light reflex is preserved despite loss of other brain stem or cranial nerve. reflexes. Sympathetic (pupillodilator) fibers travel down the entire brain stem, while. parasympathetic (pupilloconstrictor, third cranial nerve) fibers are a circuit at the. midbrain level.

- The oculomotor nerve is the third of 12 pairs of cranial nerves in the brain. This nerve is responsible for eyeball and eyelid movement. It follows the olfactory and optic nerves in terms of order. The oculomotor nerve involves two separate components, each of which has a distinct function.

Neuroscience For Kids The iris is a muscle that controls the size of the pupil and therefore, the amount of light that enters the eye. Also, the color of your eyes is determined by the iris. The vitreous or vitreous humor is a clear gel that provides constant pressure to maintain the shape of the eye. Iris: Circular band of muscles that controls the size of the pupil. 2  The pigmentation of the iris gives color to the eye. 3  Blue eyes have the least amount of pigment; brown eyes have the most. 4  Lens: Transparent tissue that bends light passing through the eye. 5  To focus light, the lens can change shape by bending.

- The pupil is the circular hole at the very center of your eye, surrounded by the colored area known as the iris. The iris is made up of small muscle fibers that control the size of the pupil, thereby controlling the amount of light allowed to reach the retina, the sensory area at the back of the eye. Normal pupils get smaller, or constrict, with bright light levels, and enlarge, or dilate, with low or dim light. Changes in pupil size also occur with focusing your eyes and in response to emotion. Pupil dilation can also result from a variety medications or drugs.
