EyeFly Glasses

EYE Opticians is an EyeFly stockist in Birmingham. EyeFly is smart eyewear from House of Modo that does one thing: audio. Open-ear audio in the temples plays music and podcasts, built-in microphones handle calls and voice assistants, and touch controls on the temple do the rest. There is no camera and no recording of any kind. Visit EYE Opticians in Edgbaston or Barnt Green to see the current EyeFly range, try a pair on and have it fitted with your prescription.

Smart glasses without the camera

EyeFly was announced by House of Modo in January 2026 and shown at the MIDO eyewear show in Milan. It takes a different route from camera glasses. The device is audio only, so there is no visual capture or recording ability, and nobody near you needs to wonder whether they are being filmed.

The audio is directional and open-ear: you hear your music, podcast or caller without blocking out the room around you. The glasses connect by Bluetooth, and a charge gives up to six hours of listening or calls.

The technology sits entirely in the temples. The front of the frame carries none, and the smart temples can be swapped for a matching pair of standard temples, which turns EyeFly into ordinary glasses. Each style comes as a prescription-ready optical frame with blue-light filtering lenses, or as a sunglass.

What EyeFly does

• Open-ear audio: music, podcasts and calls, without earbuds.
• Microphones and touch controls: take calls and use your phone's voice assistant with a tap on the temple.
• Swappable temples: change the smart temples for standard ones whenever you want plain glasses.
• No camera: audio only, with no visual capture or recording.
• Styles: the range grew in October 2026 with Axis, a clean rectangle; Nova, a cat-eye; and Amp, a navigator-inspired frame.

Try EyeFly on in Birmingham

EYE Opticians is a EyeFly stockist with two practices: our opticians in Birmingham at 44 Islington Row, Edgbaston, and our opticians in Barnt Green at 28 Hewell Road. Call ahead and we will tell you which practice has the EyeFly frames you want to see.

A frame consultation takes around 30 minutes. We talk about how you wear your glasses, measure your face and fitting, and bring out the EyeFly frames that suit your features and your prescription. Every frame is adjusted to you before you leave, and there is never any obligation.

Walk-ins are welcome at both practices, and you can also book an appointment. To arrange a time, call Edgbaston on 0121 456 5676 or Barnt Green on 0121 445 4545, or send us a message.

Lenses and prescription

EyeFly optical styles are prescription-ready, so we can glaze them to your prescription with lenses from Hoya, Essilor or Zeiss. Because the technology is in the temples, the front is fitted and glazed like any other frame. Ask us about varifocals and about sun lenses for the style you choose, and we will check that it suits your prescription before you order.
