The video tutorial explains the medial rectus muscle, one of the six outer eye muscles responsible for eye movement. It covers the muscle's location, size, and function, highlighting its role in adduction, or inward movement of the eye. The muscle originates from the annulus tendinosis communis and attaches to the anteromedial surface of the eye. Innervation is provided by the oculomotor nerve, and blood supply comes from the anterior ciliary arteries. The tutorial provides a comprehensive overview of the muscle's anatomy, function, and physiological significance.
