Kim Yeji, an athlete who represents South Korea at the Olympics, took a silver medal, a world record, and the hearts of fans with her perfectly calm demeanor during the women's 10-meter pistol shooting competition in Paris.
What are Yeji and other shooting competitors wearing on their faces? Core77 describes these unique optics that world-class shooters wear. They are mechanical irises that allow competitors to adjust their vision to match specific conditions, including light and fatigue. This particular example sells for $285.
