When images pass through our eyes why do they appear upside down on the back of your eye?

The light (in the form of photons) travel in a straight line, passing through the pupil and striking the retina. If you imagine the path the light is taking while you look at a tall object, light from the top will be angled down and strike the bottom of your retina, while light from the bottom will strike the top. That's they they appear upside down at the back of the eye.
