How many Eye Muscles Do you have?

There are six extraocular muscles that control all of the movement of the eye.

These muscles are the superior rectus, inferior rectus, lateral rectus, medial rectus, superior oblique, and inferior oblique.

The muscles of the eye are designed to stabilize in specific locations depending on what type of movement is occurring.
