Hering's law of equal innervation

Hering's law of equal innervation is a rule in our body that helps us move our eyes in certain ways. This rule says that when we move our eyes to look in a certain direction, the muscles that control our eye movements have to work together. They have to be equally strong and pull our eyes the same amount in opposite directions.

Imagine that you have two friends, one on each side of you, and you both want to play tug-of-war with a rope. If one friend pulls harder than the other, you'll end up getting pulled in one direction more than the other. This is kind of what would happen if our eye muscles didn't follow Hering's law. But because they must work equally, our eyes stay in balance and we can see clearly.

So basically, Hering's law of equal innervation helps us to move our eyes correctly, so that we can see everything around us without getting blurry or confused.
