Fig. 4 Schematic diagram of midbrain at level of superior colliculus. Proposed model of oculomotor fascicular organization in ventral midbrain tegmentum from lateral to medial aspect is as follows: inferior oblique (IO) fascicles, superior rectus (SR) fascicles, medial rectus (MR) fascicles, levator palpebrae (lid) fascicles, inferior rectus (IR) fascicles, and, most medially, the pupillary fibers (pupil).
