From the desk of the product designer:
Behind the design
“We tried making the eye piece soft and squishy, but that just made people want to smoosh their eye into it — which pushed the lens down and out of focus! To keep that from happening, we made the eye piece firm and unsquishable.”
- KiwiCo Product Designer
