The eyes were programmed to use a mind control justu with the command "protect Konoha," more or less. He originally planned for this to be used on Sasuke to mind control him into returning to the village if he continued to be a revenge driven rogue. Instead it ended up being used on himself and implanted that command over the orders he received as an edo. He's essentially still obeying an order, but now that order is "protect Konoha," and that means his new order is fighting against Akatsuki.
