What Does EOM Stand For?
EOM stands for Extraocular Muscles
EOM, or Extraocular Muscles, refers to a group of six muscles located around the eye that are responsible for controlling its movements. These muscles enable a range of eye motions, including up, down, left, and right movements, as well as coordinating actions for depth perception and tracking moving objects. Proper function of the EOM is essential for visual accuracy and overall eye health. Dysfunction in these muscles can lead to conditions such as strabismus or other visual impairments.
