The glass looks to be thin. A thin, constant thickness, formed glass don't have 
much effect on what you see trough.

Do you expect the windshield to have a magnifier like effect? Then, you are 
expecting the wrong effect. That kind of glass does have a very slight divergent 
effect, and in this case, that effect is barely noticeable. It would be so 
slight that, in practice, you can effectively remove the ior from the material.
