how do you deal with people looking at you in public places

my elderly mum and dad always have assured me that i look normal ordinary, that, you wouldn't pick me out in a crowd....but i still notice people looking at me in public places like supermarkets, the gym and while i'm walking down the street etc.

i just look away and continue what i'm doing....but how should you react?

I’m a wheelchair user so I get gawked at a lot lol. Just ignore it and go about what I’m doing. Or sometimes I will greet them and that really throws them off ahaha
