Best Answer

When the image reaches the eye, it is right-side up. The optics in your eye flip the image upside down in the process of absorbing the light. The up-side down image is then sent to your brain. You brain translates it back to right side up, and then creates the image for you to see.

The image never appears upside down to you, because your brain does not create the image for you to see until it has flipped it back right-side up.

Why don't you see things upside down if that how it enter your eyes?

It is true that the images formed on your retina are upside-down. It is also true that most people have two eyes, and therefore two retinas. Why, then, don't you see two distinct images? For the same reason that you don't see everything upside-down. One of our most remarkable tools - the brain - is hard at work for us at this task. Processing visual information is a complex task - it takes up a relatively large portion of the brain compared to other senses. This is because your brain performs several tasks to make images 'easier' to see. One, of course, is combining the two images, which is helped by the corpus callosum, the tiny part of your brain which joins the two big hemispheres. The other part is handled in the optic part of your brain itself, and part of its job is to make images right-side-up. It does this because your brain is so USED to seeing things upside-down that it eventually adjusts to it. After all, it's a lot easier to flip the image over than it is to try and coordinate your hands and legs with an upside-down world! As a result, though, it is believed that for the first few days, babies see everything upside-down. This is because they have not become used to vision. Your brain CAN be retrained though. In one psychological study, participants were asked to wear inverting lenses - lenses that invert the image BEFORE they get to your eye, so that when your eye inverts it, it's right-side-up. At first, everything appeared upside-down to the participants. But, after a few days, people began to report that everything appeared right-side-up! As a second part of the study, the people were asked to take the glasses off. Because they were now used to the lenses, their NORMAL vision appeared upside-down!! Within a day, though, their vision returned to normal. The reason you don't see everything upside-down, then, is simply because it's easier to think about right-side-up!

Do new born babies see things upside down?

Eyes work the same way regardless of the position of the head, and regardless of age. Of course, understanding what you see is another matter. I doubt that an upside down baby understands what it sees. But it does see. When they are first born, yes, we all see things upside down but our brains reverse the image. If you wear a pair of specially made spectacles that gives images upside down, for a few days you will see things upside down after you remove them until your brain can readjust to it. The reason for two answers to this question is the ambiguity of the question. Do you want to know if babies can see when they are upside down, or do you want to know if babies see an upside down image. You have an answer in either case.
