Star Wars: 10 Things You Didn't Know About The Sith

Along with the aforementioned red blade and unmistakable attire, the Sith can also be spotted sporting a set of startling yellow eyes on occasion.

The various evil figures in the Star Wars galaxy didn't simply pop in a set of spooky contact lenses after deciding to take a walk on the dark side, though.

Eyes are seen as the windows to the soul within the Star Wars universe. So, when a Sith finally fully embraced the hate and anger sitting within them, their eyes would naturally reflect what was going on inside at that very moment.
