Each muscle, ligament, and joint was to some extent affected, drawn too tightly. The head could move, and the neck, in certain positions. The eyes looked forward, moving with the head’s motion. The eyes did not roll easily, but since no attempt was made to roll them, the restriction was not noticed, except when Ruburt tried to roll his eyes when they were closed, for an exercise once or twice.
The eyes were not held rigid. They moved sideways, but in very limited fashions. The rigidity was largely set up in the head and neck regions—arms and shoulders, thus necessitating the bending of the knees and so forth.

(With gestures, Seth simulated Jane reaching to one side while keeping her head and eyes facing straight forward.)
In other ways he did not use his eyes to follow sideward motions, and often tensed the entire head area when he executed any movement he felt was difficult. As the knee and neck areas began—as they are—spontaneous motions, unused activities of the eyes also began to show. They have not been synchronized. Part of this is because all the small ligaments in both the head and knee areas are released, or are being released. They are constantly exercising themselves, but are not themselves working smoothly.
(10:17.) Added to this is the fact that joints now require lubrication. His head feels fuller, and other portions of the body also. These changes mean that the pressure in his ears and head changes. The lubrication allows more spontaneous actions on the part of the joints, ligaments, and muscles. To some extent the changing pressure accounts for the eyes’ protuberance, so that they have plenty of moisture and do not become dry as the eye muscles and other portions of the eyes exercise their new activity.
