Is there a magic item that grants the same benefit as the 6th-level Totem Barbarian's eagle totem?
$begingroup$
I want to make a sniper character but there are only two things that make this possible: the Totem Warrior barbarian's 6th-level eagle totem and the Sharpshooter feat.
The Path of the Totem Warrior barbarian gets this benefit from the Eagle totem for its 6th-level Aspect of the Beast feature (PHB, p. 50):
You gain the eyesight of an eagle. You can see up to 1 mile away with no difficulty, able to discern even fine details as though looking at something no more than 100 feet away from you. Additionally, dim light doesn’t impose disadvantage on your Wisdom (Perception) checks.
This means you can see clearly from 600 feet away - the maximum distance you can shoot with a longbow. And the first benefit of the Sharpshooter feat (PHB, p. 170) negates that disadvantage on long-distance shots.
Is there a magic item that provides the PC the same benefit as the Totem Warrior barbarian's 6th-level eagle totem?
I can see the need to multiclass barbarian/rogue, but if I could just build from the rogue class with a single magical item that offers some damage benefits.

Why do you need the features of the Eagle Totem for this build? Doesn't the sharpshooter feat cover the mechanical considerations? I don't see what is added mechanically by having improved eyesight.

Eyes of the Eagle
These crystal lenses fit over the eyes. While wearing them, you have advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight. In conditions of clear visibility, you can make out details of even extremely distant creatures and objects as small as 2 feet across.
While it doesn't specify an exact distance, these would be your best bet.
Of additional note, as V2Blast points out, a rogue barbarian would have longbow proficiency, but a solo rogue does not. You can address this with Bracers of Archery
