Lasting lightness
since 1990
Thirty years ago, MODO was founded in New York City. From
the beginning, we offered eyewear that delivered on lightness
and lasting quality. Our designs have always reflected the
world around us — in architectural precision as well as
contrasts and the balance of strength, structure, and light.
Then and now, New York’s dynamic spirit, our Italian design
heritage, and Scandinavian minimalism were our touchstones.
Design with a purpose has also guided us. Our Buy a Frame
— Help a Child See pledge has provided comprehensive
eye care to over one million children in need through our
partnership with Seva Foundation.

Paper-Thin
Our Paper-Thin collection uses innovative, ultra-thin Beta-
titanium and TR90 polyamide rims for the lightest optical
frames in the world. Each frame’s slim silhouette and minimal
construction combine design and function for beautiful results.
