Explanation
Damage to the oculomotor nerve typically causes ptosis (eyelid drooping), the eye to deviate outward due to unopposed lateral rectus muscle action, and diplopia (double vision). However, it results in pupil dilation (mydriasis), not constriction (miosis), which is why miosis is not caused by oculomotor nerve injury.
