Abstract
To prevent the driver from being dazzled by the light emitted from a lamp unit of a sun visor provided with a vanity mirror. The vanity mirror and the lamp unit are covered by a folding light cover disposed between upper edges of the vanity mirror and the lamp unit and an upper edge of the mirror cover. When the mirror cover is pivoted open, the folding light cover is unfolded perpendicular to the flat surface of the sun visor body to partially cover the vanity mirror and the lamp unit from above and beside. When the mirror cover is pivoted closed, the folding light cover is folded down between the mirror cover and the vanity mirror or the lamp unit.
