An optical system for a vehicle includes a rearview display configured to display an image of an area behind the vehicle and a positive optical device in optical communication with the rearview display. As such, the image displayed by the rearview display is projected to a virtual image plane that is spaced apart from the positive optical device by a predetermined virtual image distance in order to minimize an accommodation and a convergence of the vehicle operator's eyes when the vehicle operator's eyes switch focus between the rearview display and an object located outside and in front of the vehicle.
