Medial eye fields

Summary

Medial eye fields are areas in the frontal lobe of the primate brain that play a role in visually guided eye movement.[1] Most neuroscientists refer to this area as the supplementary eye fields. Eye fields are divided into two hemispheres regulated by sonic hedgehog (Shh) and Six3.[2]
