French President Emmanuel Macron wore blue reflective aviator sunglasses indoors during his speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos, drawing widespread attention and sparking online memes. Macron's office explained the eyewear was to protect his eyes due to a harmless burst blood vessel. US President Donald Trump mocked Macron's sunglasses during his own Davos address, while also acknowledging Macron's toughness on issues like drug pricing and Greenland. The sunglasses, identified as a luxury French brand's Pacific S 01 model, became a symbol of style and political messaging amid rising transatlantic tensions.
