I noticed that my side view mirrors are really weird. I get really dizzy when I look into them, It looks like its concave or something, like the reflections are bending inwards. this is for both side view mirrors. Is this normal?

 

seriously????

"The passenger-side mirror on a car is typically a convex mirror. In some countries, these are labeled with the safety warning "Objects in mirror are closer than they appear", to warn the driver of the convex mirror's distorting effects on distance perception. Convex mirrors are preferred in vehicles because they give an upright, though diminished, image. Also they provide a wider field of view as they are curved outwards."

 

I hate my passenger mirror. I'd rather have a normal mirror than a convex one. I've never heard of anyone getting dizzy frm looking into them though.

I'm not trying to make fun of you at all, but how is your eyesight? Is this something that has just started recently? Could it maybe be something wrong with your eyes? Does it happen when you look into both mirrors?

 

Well I first noticed it when I looked into the driver side view mirror, it look like there's two of everything lol, but when I close one eye and look, it looks normal and convexed. Well I have astigmatism, could be that lol

 

Wouldn't hurt having an optometrist check you out. If you go, make sure you tell him what's been happening so that he can properly examine you.

As far as your astigmatism goes, they CAN get worse over time which can cause diplopia. Idk if it would cause diplopia just in mirrors though.

Like I said...wouldn't hurt to get checked out.

if i order only cover can i install myself??
i've never something to do on the car
