Abducens

/æbˈduː.sɛnz/ noun

Definition

The sixth cranial nerve, which controls the muscles that pull the eye outward away from the nose.

Etymology

From Latin abducens (leading away). This nerve is named for its function of abducting (pulling away) the eye.

Kelly Says

The abducens nerve is so small and delicate that even a tiny stroke can cause the eye to turn inward—it's a humbling reminder of how fragile these neural pathways really are.
