Superotemporal

I have done some researching; 'temporal' is definitely 耳側 such as temporal retina (耳側網膜) and temporal field cut (耳側視野欠損).
When describing 上側, 'superior' is often used in medical terms. So, when I tried to put "superior" and "temporal" together I came across the term "Superotemporal" which you will find in the link below.
I also tried '上耳側' and 'Superotemporal' on Google Image, I got pretty much the same sort of images.
Hope this will be helpful to you.

Thank you!
agree Michael Karpa : I also did some looking around and found that there is a 耳上側 and a 上耳側. They are two of several sectors around the eye and can be measured by degrees. I beleive 耳上側 is temporal superior and yours is superotemporal, for the reasons matsuquin gave.
