The abducens nerve supplies the?
The abducens is another nerve sending controlling impulses to an eyeball muscle.
What nerves are involved in diplopia?
The nerves involved in diplopia include three cranial nerves: the oculomotor nerve (third cranial nerve), the abducens nerve (sixth cranial nerve), and the trochlear nerve (fourth cranial nerve).
What is the function of the medial nerve?
what is the function of the median nerve
What are the causes and clinical manifestations of Millard-Gubler syndrome?
It's due to pontine lesion that destroys abducens nerve, facial nerve and corticospinal tract of one side.paralysis of lateral rectus muscle on the same side = due to damaged abducens nerveparalysis of facial expression muscles, and loss of other functions on the same side = due to damaged facial nerveparalysis of contralateral limbs = due to damaged corticospinal tract
What is the function of the median nerve Iliohypogastric nerve?

The abducens nerve supplies the?
The abducens is another nerve sending controlling impulses to an eyeball muscle.
What nerve causes lateral movement of the eye?
abducens nerve
What nerve stimulates the lateral rectus muscle of the eye?
Abducens
What abducts the eye?
The lateral rectus muscle, innervated by the 6th cranial nerve (the Abducens)
What cranial nerve is chiefly responsible for eye movements?
oculomotor, trochlear, abducens
What nerves are involved in diplopia?
The nerves involved in diplopia include three cranial nerves: the oculomotor nerve (third cranial nerve), the abducens nerve (sixth cranial nerve), and the trochlear nerve (fourth cranial nerve).
Which cranial nerve is used in reading the paper?
The main nerve required would be the optic nerve (II), although you would also use the ocular motor nerve (III) to move the eyes. Other cranial nerves involved are: Trochlear nerve (IV) and Abducens nerve (VI).
What cranial nerve is responsible for moving the eye laterally?
There are three cranial nerves that innervates muscle to move the eye. The main cranial nerve that controls eye movement is occulomotor nerve (CN III). It is responsible for inferior rectus, superior rectus, medial rectus, and inferior oblique. Lateral rectus muscle is innervated by abducens nerve (CN VI). Superior oblique muscle is innervated by trochlear nerve (CN III).
Which cranial nerve is responsible for lateral movement of the eye?
Abducent nerve. Also called as abducens nerve. The sixth cranial nerve. Superior oblique muscle is supplied by trochlear nerve. All other muscles are supplied by oculomotor nerve.
What is the function of sacral nerve?
Autonomic nerve function in body
Which of the cranial nerves deals primarily with motor function?
Motor only CNIII Oculomotor nerve CN IV Trochlear/pathic nerve CN VI Abducens nerve CN XI Accessory/spinal accessory nerve CN XII Hypoglossal nerve Both motor and sensory CN V Trigeminal/dentist nerve CN VII Facial nerve CN IX Glossopharyngeal nerve CN X Vagus nerve
What is the function of median nerve?
what is the function of the median nerve
