Summary The superior colliculus (SC) is the main brain region regulating innate defensive behaviors to visual threat. Yet, how SC integrates binocular information and what extent vision drives unknown. Here, we show that facilitates visually-evoked escape behavior. Furthermore, find neurons respond input with diverse synaptic spiking responses, summate inputs largely sublinearly. Using pathway-specific optogenetic silencing contralateral ipsilateral carried through retinal, interhemispheric corticotectal pathways. These pathways carry in a layer-specific manner, superficial layers receiving retinal input, whereas intermediate deep rely on Together, our data shed light cellular circuit mechanisms underlying processing its role
