Therefore, in recent years, there has been proposed a device in which the amount of projection of the device to the outside of the vehicle is extremely reduced by using a refraction member formed of a prism. This rear viewing device is composed of a refraction member, a reflection member (mirror), and the like. Specifically, a housing is provided on the door, and a part of the housing is exposed to the outside surface of the door. And a reflection member (mirror) that reflects the rear view obtained through the refraction member to the vehicle interior side is disposed inward of the refraction member in the housing. A refraction member that refracts the field of view reflected by the reflection member in the line of sight of the occupant is provided in an opening formed on the vehicle cabin side.
