The function of the Orbicularis Oculi is that it closes the eyelids.
The Orbicularis Occuli Muscle controls the movement of your eyelids. It is located in the face and it closes the eyelids. It is the only muscle capable of this.If the orbicularis occuli muscle loses it's function, then there would be no waywhatsoever to close the eye. In extreme cases, if the muscle does not work, necessitating eye drops at the minimum is used for the removal of the eye in extreme cases.The palpebral (eyelids) portion acts involuntary in sleep or blinking. It closes the eyelids gently. The orbital (sockets) portion therefore develops conscious control. When the whole of the muscle is in action, the skin of the temple, cheek and forehead is brought toward the medial angle of the orbit and the eyelids are firmly closed. That occurs in photophobia (cannot withstand light/fear of light). Therefore, the skin that is drawn upon is thrown into folds.Every time the eyelids close because of the orbicularis muscle, the medial palpebral ligament is tightened. Therefore, the wall of the lacrimal sac is drawn lateralward and forward, therefore, a vacuum is made in it and the tears are sucked along the lacrimal canals. The lacrimal draws the eyelids and ends of the lacrimal canals medialward. And that compresses them against the globe of the eye's surface. That is it's favourite position to produce tears.By Mia Villon.
The muscle that moves the eyelids is called the orbicularis oculi muscle. It is responsible for closing the eyelids.

The orbicularis oris muscle is located in the face around the mouth. It encircles the mouth and is responsible for controlling lip movements such as puckering.
The orbicularis oculi is a muscle in the face that closes the eyelids. It arises from the nasal part of the frontal bone, from the frontal process of the maxilla in front of the lacrimal groove, and from the anterior surface and borders of a short fibrous band, the medial palpebral ligament.kantot
