+160 If the images reflected in our retinas are actually flipped upside down due to the way our brains process images and we see everything right-side up, it would be interesting to see how things actually look from an objective standpoint, amirite?

It's basic sixth grade science. The images that you see are first reflected by the retinas in your eyes upside down, making them the way that you see them now, and your brain registers them as the right side up. I'm no scientist, but I'd be interested in seeing how the world looks before your retinas flip it right side up.

there was some expirement conducted by this person. They wore these glasses with mirrors on them that flipped her vision upisde down and in a couple months or weeks (i dont know) her brain became accustomed to it and she was able to ride a bike and drive her car and,,, yeah true story... it's really just a matter of the brain having the capability to adapt to different circumstances

I'm not 100% sure, but I am under the impression that it's exactly like how we see them. Consider your sense of touch. Your computer is still oriented the same way when you look at it out touch it with your eyes closed.

Your eye flips the images upside-down, but your mind orients them back to normal. You would see exactly what we see now.
