The role of the eyepiece is to change the angle, A, of the rays from the objective as they enter the eye. As the figure shows Ritva. A. Keski-Kuha, Charles W. Bowers, Manuel A. Quijada.

It is said that what Galileo saw was so disturbing for some officials of the Church that they refused to even look through his telescope; they reasoned that the Devil was capable of making anything appear in the telescope, so it was best not to look through it.
