Yeah, I fell for that answer, too. But it's not the correct one. Try again! Key word is from aBducted position (not normal position). What is the only muscle that will elevate eye from the aBducted position?

ah man.. silly me :oops: yeah... Abducted is superior rectus! CN III innervation. But how would you test it? I am not sure... I would think the test is as your question states -> abduct eye and see of patient can elevate the eye?

Ok, I am kinda confused :? How can Superior Rectus depress the eyeball? I thought it elevates it. And Inferior rectus does the opposite. Hmmm, can u explain mash?

Ok guys, just looked up some of my notes from kaplan and here is what I have. Learn it cold Superior Rectus :arrow: elevates and aDDucts the eye from neutral position. From the aBducted position, it’s the only muscle that can elevate the eye. Test: Ask pt to first look to the side, then look up. Inferior Oblique :arrow: elevates and aBducts the eye from neutral position. From the aDDucted position, it’s the only muscle that can elevate the eye. TEST: Ask pt to look first to the nose, then look up: up and in “toward the bridge of nose.” Inferior Rectus :arrow: depresses and aDDucts the eye from neutral position. From the aBducted position, it’s the only muscle that can depress the eye. TEST: Ask pt to first look to the side, then look down. Superior Oblique :arrow: depresses and aBducts the eye from neutral position. From the aDDucted position, it’s the only muscle that can depress the eye. TEST:Ask pt to look first to the nose, then look down: “down and in” toward the tip of the nose. Medial/Lateral Rectus :arrow: aDDuct/aBduct eye TEST for Medial: Ask pt to look at the nose medially. TEST for Lateral:Ask pt to look to the side.
