When I went through my mirror testing phase I too found helmet mirrors too distracting and since my glasses sometimes slide down my nose - eye glass models made that worse. I then tried the bar mount mirrors, they wobbled and when I went over rough roads they sometimes needed to be reset. Then there was the inevitable flat to fix - the mirror was in the way when I flipped the bike over. That's why I ended up with the bar end mirror that did not protrude - it is like it is not even there - except when you need it. However - given that's not an option here I would think the Bike eye would be my next choice, although not sure I would like having to adjust your leg position to use the mirror.
