If you take your glasses off why do images appear blurred when looking in a mirror After all the image on mirror is only a few inches away?

Technically, the image originates from the same distance from your eyes as if you were looking straight at it (rather than through a mirror). This is because the image does not originate from the mirror per se, but from the object itself. The mirror merely changes the directions of the photons, but does not refocus or create a new image. Therefore, the distance from your eye to the object is the real distance of the image.

In case of convex mirror, the size of the image will be diminished, or smaller than us and the image will be erect too. This is because the image formed is virtual and erect.
