Hi, I heard that you can get tiny stick-on mirrors that can be placed on the inside of your riding goggle lenses, making them invisible to other road users. I'm not talking about the magic mirror or clip on ones that attach to the leg of your goggles.
My question is, do these work and where can I buy one online? My riding shades have nice wide lenses so I reckon this could be a good solution for me.
Thanks in advance

I had one of those dot-mirrors but never was able to get it to work properly with my sunglasses because of the extremeness of the wrap-arounds. They're hard to adjust and you have to pay special attention to their placement. I was also a bit concerned about them poking me in the eye during a crash. I ended up giving it to a friend who I don't think had any better luck. Third-Eye used to make one called the MicroMirror (what I had) but I think that it's been discontinued. CycleAware also makes one called the ViewPoint which you can still get.

Anyway I find those mirrors next to useless since wrap arounds cover ur field of view. If for some reason u do decide to get them, stick some electrical tape on first then glue the mirror on that so u don't f'up the lens.

I had the same problem with wrap around lenses, so I gave them to a friend. He has prescription glasses that do not wrap around they are are pretty flat. He could make them work until he put a hat or a backpack on. He finally gave up too.
