| inferior branch of oculomotor nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Branch of oculomotor nerve providing motor branches to medial and inferior rectus and inferior oblique muscles and carrying presynaptic parasympathetic fibres which pass to the ciliary ganglion via the parasympathetic root. Synonym: ramus inferior nervi oculomotorii. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| oculomotor | <anatomy> Of or pertaining to the movement of the eye; applied especially to the common motor nerves (or third pair of cranial nerves) which supply many of the muscles of the orbit. The oculomotor nerve. Origin: Oculo- + motor. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| oculomotor muscles | Muscles of the eye that include musculi bulbi (extraocular), musculus orbicularis oculi (eyelids), and musculus orbitalis. These control the eye and surrounding structures. (12 Dec 1998) |
| oculomotor nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Responsible for motor enervation of upper eyelid muscle, extraocular muscle and pupillary muscle. Lesions of the oculomotor nerve results in ptosis (dropping eyelid), deviation of the eyeball outward, double vision and a dilated pupil. (27 Sep 1997) |
| oculomotor nerve paralysis | Partial or complete paralysis of the eye muscles due to third cranial, or oculomotor, nerve lesion. The lesion may result from injury, ischemia (cerebral haemorrhage), tumours, or other brain pathology. (12 Dec 1998) |
| oculomotor nucleus | The composite group of motor neurons innervating all of the external eye muscles except the musculus rectus lateralis and musculus obliquus superior, and including the musculus levator palpebrae superioris; the most rostral component of the nucleus is the Edinger-Westphal nucleus which innervates the musculi sphincter pupillae and ciliaris via the ciliary ganglion. The oculomotor nucleus lies in the rostral half of the midbrain, near the midline in the most ventral part of the central gray substance; fibres of the medial longitudinal fasciculus form its lateral borders. Synonym: nucleus nervi oculomotorii, nucleus of oculomotor nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| oculomotor response | Widespread myogenic potential evoked by visual stimuli. (05 Mar 2000) |
| oculomotor root of ciliary ganglion | A branch of the oculomotor nerve supplying parasympathetic preganglionic nerve fibres to the ciliary ganglion. Synonym: radix parasympathica ganglii ciliaris, radix oculomotoria ganglii ciliaris, motor root of ciliary ganglion, oculomotor root of ciliary ganglion, radix brevis ganglii ciliaris, short root of ciliary ganglion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| oculomotor system | That part of the central nervous system having to do with eye movements; it is composed of pathways connecting various regions of the cerebrum, brainstem, and ocular nuclei, utilizing multisynaptic articulations. (05 Mar 2000) |
