Schematic diagram of stereoscope apparatus and visual pathway with relevant cortical and subcortical regions. Each monitor provides visual input to a single eye. Dashed lines shows input from left eye and solid lines show input from right eye. From the monocularly segregated optic chiasm, the retino-tectal pathway (shown in red) projects from superior colliculus, to pulvinar and amygdala. The parallel retino-geniculate pathway (shown in blue) projects from lateral geniculate nucleus to striate and binocular extrastriate cortex. For simplicity, we depict only the input from the contralateral eye to the superior colliculus.
