  • Title: A review of proprioception in extraocular muscles.
    Author: Sivak B.
    Journal: Am J Optom Physiol Opt; 1983 Jun; 60(6):530-4. PubMed ID: 6224425.
    Abstract:
    The controversial literature concerning the presence or absence of extraocular muscle proprioception is reviewed under the headings of anatomical, physiological, and psychophysical evidence. The principal area of confusion, namely whether to expect conscious awareness of proprioceptive information, is a problem also faced by researchers dealing with general skeletal muscle proprioception. It is unlikely that extraocular muscle proprioception will be understood in isolation from the proprioceptive mechanisms of the rest of the body.
