[edit] Merge header

Per the above, Extraocular muscles should not merge into Muscles of the orbit. "Extraocular muscles" is typically used to describe the six muscles that control the eye movements; however, the levator palpebrae superioris and superior tarsal muscle are literally "extraocular". I'll bring this up in Wikipedia:WikiProject Ophthalmology. -AED 00:45, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

I don't understand - does this mean "Extraocular muscles" refers to 6 and/or the 2 others you mentioned? 86.1.105.242 21:21, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
