Orbital layer (OL) fascicle #4 was traced anteriorly from 22.19 mm to 12.79 mm posterior to the corneal surface, where the fascicle inserted on the pulley. The identity of the pulley is supported by its heavy staining for elastin by van Gieson’s stain. The number in the left upper corner of each frame indicates the section’s distance in mm from the anterior corneal surface. Black arrows mark the traced fascicle. ON, optic nerve; LPS, levator palpebrae superioris; SR, superior rectus muscle; IR, inferior
rectus muscle; MR, medial rectus muscle; LR, lateral rectus muscle; SO, superior oblique muscle; GL, global layer; OL, orbital layer.

Global layer (GL) fascicle #8 was traced anteriorly along the GL border with the orbital layer from 22.19 mm to 9.38 mm posterior to the corneal surface, where the fascicle terminated in the scleral tendon. The number in the left upper corner of each frame indicates the section’s distance in mm from the anterior corneal surface. Black arrows mark the traced
fascicle. ON, optic nerve; LPS, levator palpebrae superioris; SR, superior rectus muscle; IR, inferior rectus muscle; MR, medial rectus muscle; LR, lateral rectus muscle; SO, superior oblique muscle; GL, global layer; OL, orbital layer.
