Open publisher page 23 citations
Abstract
Human extraocular muscles are richly endowed with sensory receptors. The precise role of afferent signals derived from these proprioceptors in ocular motor control and spatial localization has been the subject of considerable debate for more than a century. Laboratory-based and clinical studies have increasingly suggested that proprioceptive signals from extraocular muscles influence visuomotor behavior.
