When the lens of the eye focuses light on the retina, the resulting image is upside-down. This is because the lens refracts (or bends) the light and the retina is located at the back of the eye, opposite to where the light enters. However, the brain processes the image and flips it to the correct orientation, allowing us to see the world right-side up.
