In mammals, separate muscles are typically specialized as a whole to provide distinct functional roles leading to well-recognized adaptations. This is exemplified in the lower limb by the slow, fatigue-resistant soleus, which provides a postural role vs. the fast, fatiguable tibialis anterior (TA), which provides rapid movements. A unique characteristic of extraocular muscles (EOMs) is their compartmentalization into two distinct layers, the orbital layer (OL) and global layer (GL), presumably t ...[more]
