Glasses

Sorry if this is the wrong forum but I didnt know where else to post

The little screw holding the lens in place has come loose on my specs and my normal screw drivers dont seem to work on this tiny one. So does anyone know where I can buy a screw driver to do the job? I tried looking on ebay but the only seller cant recieve funds at the moment

Go into a boots opticians... they'll probably do it for you.

maplin for the tools mate, they usually stock small watch makers screw drivers sets which should work.

as subby says Maplins is your best bet,if not i can post you one 8)

Go to the opticians where you bought them, I've had them done for free twice before. These days I just try to find a set of screwdrivers that my brother hasn't nicked.

**Keva** · 22nd August 2006

Any idea if the opticians that I bought them in will provide a replacement screw or are those part of the glasses frame that needs to be bought?

use the end of a very sharp kitchen knife, normally works for tiny screws for me

or a mobile phone shop if theres one nearer

offer still stands i can post you acouple of spare screws and the driver if you want

Just take them in to any opticians they will do it for you your eye sight will be bad with out the glasses on so you could rupture an aertery or somthing if you miss the screw

I got a little tool set in Next, it's got standard bits with Phillips, Torque etc.. and a set of tiny screwdrivers for that kind of thing. It's in the gifts section, very handy it is.
