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.

Yep! Light enters our eyes through a small hole, which means all the pictures we see are upside-down and backwards. The reason we don't all see that way is because there's a part of our brain that flips our initial vision right-side up.

No, newborn babies do not see things upside down. Their visual system is developing and adapting to the world around them, but they do not have the ability to perceive objects in such a way.

Yes, infants are born hyperoptic (which means far-sighted). They usually grow out of it by school age as the hyperopia is replaced with emmetropia (normal vision).

Yes the images received in the eye is upside down. It is then processed by the brain to correct the image to its right orientation.

Do you see things upside down?

Yes, we do in fact see things upside down until our brain turns it back around for us. You can prove this fact when you look at your self on the outside of a spoon, you will see yourself upside down! In fact our eyes see things the right way up but the image appears upside down in the retina, our brain works so fast that it can interpret the image quickly. +++ The spoon is no test of how sight works, but demonstrates a property of convex mirrors!
