Morphological indication for proprioception in the human ciliary muscle
Investigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science, 07/08/09
Fluegel-Koch CM et al. - The morphological findings indicate that there are proprioreceptors in the ciliary muscle that morphologically and presumably functionally differ at different locations. At the posterior muscle tips the receptors could measure stretch of the tendons whereas the large receptor organs located at the anterior muscle tips morphologically resemble mechanoreceptors measuring shear stress. The presence of the numerous intrinsic nerve cells indicates that contraction of the circular muscle portion can be modulated locally, via a self-contained reflex arc.
