Opposite here. Almost all that use mirrors use eyeglass mounted mirrors, or mirrors fixed to the bike. Helmets move, shift and bounce much more than glasses.

Personally, I find bike mounted mirrors nearly useless compared to to eyeglass (or helmet) mounted mirrors due to either very narrow field of view or demagnification and vibration. Eyeglass mounting provides a much wider, full scale, steady and steerable view. Helmet mounting is nearly as good.
