The active and passive behaviour of the extraocular muscles can be investigated by measuring the force that must be applied to rotate the eyeball when the muscles are relaxed (the forced duction test) or the force required to maintain the eyeball stationary while the contralateral eye follows a moving target (the force generation test). Apparatus and test procedures for carrying out both tests are described. Normal values and confidence intervals for the tests have been obtained and the results of muscle entrapment and palsy illustrated. |
